Probate of a will is the legal process by which a court certifies the validity of a deceased person’s will and grants authority to the executor to administer the estate. It ensures that the wishes of the deceased are honored and that distribution of property is carried out lawfully and transparently. Obtaining probate provides legal recognition and avoids disputes among heirs or beneficiaries.

Types of Probate & Related Proceedings

Probate of Will – Official validation of a will by the court.

Letters of Administration – Issued when the deceased has not left a valid will, granting authority to administer the estate.

Succession Certificate – Legal document to claim debts, securities, and movable assets of the deceased.

Contested Probate – Proceedings when the validity of the will is challenged by legal heirs.
