What is probate?
Probate is nothing more than the orderly transition of assets per the instructions of a Will.
This process used to be a nightmarish, but it has been simplified. Many estates, if they are put together properly and are uncontested, can be probated and completed in less than 6 – 8 months.
The operative words here are “put together properly.” If you are asking this question in the first place, then its probably time for a new accountant. Call our offices today.

Testimonial
I have used Chris and Julie at Accounting Solutions for nearly a decade now for my publishing business, through good times and bad, and I have found their sage advice and quality work to be essential to navigating my business through these trying times. I can honestly say that they have saved me from making financial and business decisions that, in hindsight, could easily have destroyed my business.
