What is Probate?
Probate is a term used in law to describe the court process for gathering a decedent's assets, paying taxes and claims, and distributing assets to the beneficiaries in accordance with an individual’s Last Will & Testament or if without a will, in accordance with New Jersey state law. Generally probate is only necessary when a person dies with assets in his or her own name alone.
Assets in a living trust or jointly held with someone else or with a beneficiary designation do not have to go through probate in New Jersey. Probate has a mixed reputation in New Jersey, sometimes rightfully so, but not always.
We can explain to you in simple, plain English the pros and cons of New Jersey probate law and probating an estate in New Jersey.
