Understanding Probate Costs

Probate costs depend on the type of administration required and the complexity of the estate. Common types of probate include:

Small Estate Procedures

The simplest option for small estates. May avoid formal court proceedings entirely. Typically the fastest and least expensive option.

Summary Administration

Available for estates meeting certain value thresholds or time requirements. Faster and less expensive than formal administration.

Formal Administration

Required for larger estates or when there are outstanding debts or disputes. Involves appointing a personal representative and court supervision.
