What Is Probate Administration?
Probate administration is the legal process that winds up the financial affairs of a deceased person and enables his or her property to be distributed to the beneficiaries named in a will. If the deceased person does not have a will, a similar process called estate administration is used to distribute the estate’s assets to relatives of the decedent.

It is important that these tasks are handled properly. If they are not, it can expose the executor or estate administrator to the possibility of a lawsuit.
