What is Probate?
What is probate? At its core, probate is the legal process that typically takes place after someone dies. The actual legal steps themselves vary depending on a variety of circumstances. In some cases, the probate process under Florida law involves proving that a Last Will and Testament is valid or should be contested, disputed and invalidated. In other cases, the probate process involves identifying a decedent’s legal heirs. The goal of probate, and the reason for the legal process, is to ensure the orderly and legal transfer of property from a decedent to the person(s) entitled to receive the property; or, put simply, wrapping up the decedent’s final affairs. The circumstances surrounding a decedent at the time that they die defines how the probate process looks and feels.
