Wills and Probate

WILLS AND PROBATE
(Click Box to Read More)

In a will, a person or "testator" expresses, in writing, what he (or she) wants done with his property after he dies. Most states require wills to be signed by the testator and witnessed by two people. "Probate" is a court proceeding in which final debts are settled and legal title to property is formally passed from the deceased person or "decedent" to his heirs. Probate proceedings take place in the probate court or surrogate court in the county of the decedent's legal residence at the time of his death. If a person dies "intestate," meaning "without a will," state law determines how to distribute his property.
