Written by When someone passes on without a will in California, their estate isn’t left in disarray. Instead, the state uses intestate succession laws to determine property distribution. The probate court oversees this allocation of assets to ensure everything is in legal compliance.
The probate court selects an administrator to oversee the process. This chosen individual identifies heirs, appraises assets, pays off debts, and distributes the remainder of the estate according to California laws. The judge may choose a family member, friend, or professional for this role.
Probate can be lengthy and complicated, especially in families with complex relationships or financial situations. Understanding the specifics of who inherits under intestate succession laws can help you navigate this intricate process more effectively.
