Probate v. Non-Probate: What Is the Difference?
When planning your estate, it is important to understand the difference between probate and non-probate assets. Why is this distinction so important? To make sure your intentions are carried out. Your will does not control the distribution of non-probate property. Moreover, non-probate property may have some advantages, such as avoiding ancillary probate for out of state real property, or avoiding delays in transferring property at your death.
