Administration Proceedings

When someone passes away without a Will, then the Surrogate’s Court determines who is entitled to inherit from the decedent's estate. The person who seeks to handle the decedent's estate or the proposed Administrator, submits a petition to the court.

Expense Management

Debt Payment

Administration proceedings are legal processes initiated to manage and settle the estate of a deceased person. This involves appointing an administrator to handle the distribution of the decedent's assets, settle debts, and ensure that the wishes outlined in the will (if available) are honored, or, in the absence of a will, that the estate is distributed according to the law. The primary objectives are to ensure the fair distribution of assets, settle any debts and taxes, and comply with relevant laws and regulations.

The Administration Process

The administration process begins with the appointment of an administrator. If there is a will, the executor named in it usually takes on this role. In the absence of a will, the court appoints an administrator, often a close family member. The administrator is responsible for creating a detailed inventory and valuation of the deceased's assets, including property, bank accounts, investments, and personal belongings.
