Understanding Probate in Brevard County

Probate is the legal process of administering a deceased person's estate, which involves validating the will, settling debts, and distributing assets to beneficiaries. While it’s an essential process, it can often be complex and fraught with potential challenges. Here’s what you need to know about probate:


What is Probate?

Probate involves several key steps:

  • Validating the Will: The court must determine that the will is valid and legally enforceable.
  • Appointing an Executor or Personal Representative: The court appoints an executor (if named in the will) or a personal representative to manage the estate.
  • Inventorying Assets: All assets of the estate must be identified and valued.
  • Paying Debts and Taxes: Outstanding debts, taxes, and other liabilities must be settled before distributing assets.
  • Distributing Assets: Once all debts and taxes are paid, the remaining assets are distributed to the beneficiaries according to the will or state law if there is no will.



Types of Probate in Brevard County

In Florida, probate can generally be categorized into three types:

  • Formal Administration: For larger or more complex estates, requiring detailed court oversight.
  • Summary Administration: For smaller estates, involving a simplified and faster process.
  • Disposition of Personal Property Without Administration: For estates with minimal assets and no debts.
