Probate is the court process of handling someone’s estate after they pass away, with or without a will. The court may decide if a will is valid, make sure assets are divided correctly, and check that the executor is doing their job.

In New Jersey, probate courts handle what happens when someone dies without a will. This is called “intestate,” and the court uses state rules to decide how the estate is divided. Probate can also step in even if there is a will. For example, a spouse or child left out of the will may ask the court for a share of the estate. A New Jersey probate lawyer can help you understand these rules and protect your rights during the process.

When a loved one passes, you want time to grieve, but there may also be legal issues to handle. Probate makes sure their estate is managed and distributed the right way. A New Jersey probate lawyer can guide you through each step and take the stress off your shoulders. Call today to schedule your consultation.
