What is the probate process after a parent's death?

Christine James
Answered by attorney Christine James
Estate Planning lawyer at James Law Group
You need to call a probate lawyer to discuss the situation. Nothing is automatic, someone has to take steps to probate a deceased person's estate. If he had a surviving spouse, she would have priority and likely be his heir unless their is a will or the marriage was not long term. The state and county where your father owned property is where the probate would be initiated. If he owned no real property, the state where he died would be the proper place.
