In Connecticut, full probate is required when the decedent: owned individually held property without a beneficiary designation that is greater than $40,000; or. had any amount of solely owned real estate; or. has certain legal actions (such as a wrongful death claim) pending that need to be untaken by the estate.
When a person who owns property dies, the Probate Courts oversee division of the property. Most often the division is carried out according to the persons wishes as set forth in a will. If no will exists, the property is divided according to Connecticut law.
Full probate is ONLY required by law if the person who dies, with or without a will, (1) owned real estate (not just a life use) that does not pass by the deed to the surviving joint owner, OR (2) owned $40,000 or more of other assets that also dont pass by beneficiary or joint ownership to another person.
In Connecticut, the length of probate varies depending on the complexity of the estate. For a relatively simple estate, you can expect it to take at least six months, but many estates take a year or longer to settle completely.
Probate is the general administration of a deceased persons will or the estate of a deceased person without a will. An executor is commonly named in the will or an administrator, if there is no will, to complete the probate process.
