If your loved one did not leave behind a trust, then you will likely have to go through the probate process. How the process proceeds depends on whether or not a will was left behind. If it was, then the will needs to be proven; provided everything goes smoothly, the assets can be distributed according to the will. If there is no will, then the state will take charge of distributing the deceased’s belongings.
