Probate matters are a type of legal matter that administer a deceased individual’s (“decedent”) estate. A common misunderstanding about probate is that it is only required when the decedent has a will at the time of their death.
Though, whether or not a probate matter is required depends on the type(s) of assets the decedent left behind.
Moline probate matters are court cases that probate courts ensure proper payments are made to heirs and creditors after someone passes away. If there was a will left in place the probate process is slightly different than a probate matter without one. If a probate matter is required, an attorney must take the proper steps to administer the estate.

Wills can ensure assets are distributed appropriately in a probate case, but an estate must enter probate with or without a will.
A common misconception is that a will allows your estate to avoid probate. A better option for individuals who own real estate or have a savings account is to use a revocable living trust either in place of or in conjunction with a will.
Probate can be avoided by utilizing a revocable living trust and transferring your real estate and savings accounts into it during your lifetime.
