    Probate is the legal process that takes place after a death. It involves proving in court that the deceased's will is valid, which is usually a very routine matter. It also includes identifying and inventorying the deceased person's estate, having assets appraised, paying any outstanding debts and taxes, and distributing the remaining estate as per the will. If there is no will, then this process is called administration. This is similar to applying for probate but there are some differences in the documents required and the law will determine the way assets are divided, instead of this being done according to the will of the person who has passed away.
