Estate planning and probate can be involved processes. For those who are just getting started with either of them, knowing some fundamental terms can be a good place to start, as it can begin to familiarize people with the key terms they will likely be hearing and needing to understand as they move forward.
To this end, below is a helpful glossary to reference as you prepare to start the estate planning or probate process. When you need experienced help with an estate plan or probate, however, contact a seasoned Denver estate & probate attorney at Colorado Estate Matters, Ltd.
Administrator – The court-appointed person or fiduciary who oversees the estate administration process if there is no executor or personal representative for an estate (because none has been named in a will or none of the designated parties wishes to serve in this position)
These, of course, are by no means all of the terms fundamental to estate planning and probate. If you need more answers about either of these processes, contact Colorado Estate Matters, Ltd. today.
