Probate Administration

Death of a loved one can be overwhelming, particularly when you have the daunting task of settling the estate. We can help.

Let us guide you through the process of settling your loved one’s estate.

At Wayland Law, we understand that the Colorado probate process can be complex and overwhelming, particularly when you have just lost a loved one. Bills need to be paid, and assets need to be distributed or sold. We are here to help.

Probate is a legal process in which a deceased person’s assets are distributed to beneficiaries or heirs, and the estate’s debts are managed and satisfied. In Colorado, all estates having more than $75,000 in assets must be probated. If your loved one had a valid will, the probate process ensures that the assets are distributed according to the deceased’s wishes as described in the will. However, if your loved one died without a valid will, the assets are distributed to family members in a manner determined by Colorado law.

Our experienced probate attorneys assist a person who has, or will be, appointed as the estate’s personal representative (executor) to navigate the probate process and to effectively administer the estate.

If you have been appointed as a personal representative or have questions about the probate process, please call Wayland Law to speak with one of our experienced probate attorneys.
