In contrast to formal probate, informal probate is simpler and often faster. Its usually handled through the court clerk or probate registrar rather than a judge. The chosen personal representative still performs similar taskspaying debts, distributing propertybut does so with minimal court involvement.
Informal Probate. Probate, as Ive mentioned, occurs when an executor files a probate petition with the court and handles the affairs of the deceased according to his or her Will. Informal probate is similar to probate, but it differs in that it can be done without the supervision of the court.
For uncontested and informal probate cases, you can expect the estate to be settled in six to eight months, assuming the personal representative completes their duties in a timely fashion. However, more complicated estates and those going through formal or supervised probate can take much longer to settle.
Informal probate simplifies the process of probate by removing the step-by-step oversight of the probate court. Instead, informal probate consists mostly of paperwork.
An informal probate requires submitting paperwork to the probate court registrar. The registrar may appoint a personal representative. They also may admit a will to probate or determine that a person died intestate. There are limitations on who can apply for an informal probate.
