  • How do I get started?

    A personal representative's duties are prescribed by the last will of the deceased person and the Michigan Estates and Protected Individuals Code (EPIC). Specifically, the personal representative must file documents to be appointed by a probate court, send notices to the beneficiaries, notify creditors, inventory probate assets, manage assets according to the instructions in the decedent's will, pay taxes, pay claims, and account for all distributions and expenses.

  • How long does it take to prepare documents?

    The probate process takes at least five months to complete. However, four months of that time are allowed for creditors to make claims against the estate. In many cases, a portion of the assets are distributed to the beneficiaries while the probate proceedings are still pending.
