The Process of Probate

Most executors have rarely if ever probated a will and know little about the process. We can guide you through all aspects of probate, including:

  • Filing the will with the appropriate probate court – whether in Arkansas, Oklahoma or Missouri
  • Developing the best strategy for fairly and expeditiously probating the estate
  • Finding and collecting assets
  • Closing and opening bank accounts
  • Transferring assets from the deceased to the estate
  • Paying estate taxes
  • Valuing, managing, preserving and liquidating the estate
  • Locating beneficiaries
  • Hiring experts, when appropriate
