Estate Administration + Probate

When a person passes away, all their possessions, including real estate, money, stocks and business interests, and personal belongings become part of their estate, and their estate needs to be collected and managed. Estate administration involves gathering the assets of the estate, paying any debts and taxes, filing tax returns, and distributing the remaining assets to the heirs or beneficiaries of the estate. Probate is the legal process of settling an estate in court after someone passes away. Depending on the circumstances probate may, or may not, be necessary.
