Law Office Of Teri Plagmann, PC 

Probate is a legal process where a court oversees the distribution of a deceased person's property, most often under the terms of their Will. Probate is not always necessary. It may not be required if the deceased person leaves very few assets or their assets can otherwise be legally distributed. An abbreviated small estate process may also be used in certain circumstances, at a significantly less cost than a probate estate.
