Probate administration
A death in the family is difficult enough to begin with. A trusted probate administrator can help look after the legal aspects of the person’s estate so that you can focus on taking care of your loved ones. Whether you are in the middle of this situation now or simply thinking ahead to the future, probate administration is the key to creating a clear and easy process for asset management after death.
Probate administration is when a legal representative like Mark helps you handle the estate of a deceased person. This applies when someone leaves a will, in which case the probate administrator will execute their wishes. It also applies when someone did not leave behind a legal will. In this case, Mark helps you manage the person’s estate, including paying all debts, distributing assets, and advocating for the beneficiaries.
