What Is Probate?
Probate is the legal process of settling a deceased person’s estate. This may involve validating a will, identifying assets, paying debts and taxes, and distributing property to beneficiaries according to Washington law. While some estates can avoid probate through proper estate planning, many estates require court involvement to ensure assets are transferred correctly.
Having a knowledgeable probate lawyer by your side can help prevent costly mistakes, reduce delays, and ensure all legal requirements are met.
