Has A Close Relative Or Friend Passed Away?
When a close relative or friend dies there are several important legal and tax matters that must be addressed. If the deceased person has sufficient property, you may need to initiate probate proceedings.

Probate is a process whereby the Court supervises the transfer of assets from the deceased person to his or her heirs. Probate requires the filing of particularized and complicated legal forms and the entire process is supervised by the Probate Department of the California Superior Court.
