Probate

Helping You & Your Loved Ones Navigate the Complex Probate Process

The Probate court is where a person’s estate passes to be distributed if a person dies without a will (intestate) or with a will. The court, following Oklahoma Law, will distribute the estates of people who die without a will. Similarly, people who die with a will will have their estate pass through probate court.

Probate court is the court system that determines what is going to happen to people’s assets after they are gone. This includes directing assets to creditors to honor obligations, and having any remaining assets passed to heirs according to the wishes of the deceased.

Working to Avoid Probate

Probate can be a costly, confusing, and time-consuming process for your loved ones, especially if your estate is substantial. One of the best gifts you can provide to your family is an effective estate plan that minimizes, or even eliminates, the need to go through probate. This can be done by using trusts and other estate planning vehicles to plan for what you want to happen to your assets. A good estate plan can save thousands of dollars in taxes, attorney costs, and streamline the process for your family.

Helping You Through Probate

If a loved one has recently passed, it may be necessary for their estate to go through probate. While this is undoubtedly a difficult time, it is also very important for the probate process to proceed properly to avoid unnecessary delays and expenses. Our attorneys can determine your interests in probate court to help ensure your inheritance is received as quickly and efficiently as possible.
