What Probate involves

Probate is the court-managed process of settling a person’s estate after they pass away. It includes:

  • Verifying the will

  • Appointing a personal representative (also called an executor)

  • Locating and valuing assets

  • Paying debts, taxes, and final expenses

  • Distributing assets to the appropriate heirs or beneficiaries

We work closely with personal representatives to manage each step, ensuring legal requirements are met and the process stays organized from start to finish.

Understanding Trust Administration

If your loved one created a trust, their assets may not go through probate. Even so, the trust still needs to be managed and distributed according to its terms.

Trust administration includes:

  • Notifying beneficiaries

  • Gathering and valuing trust assets

  • Handling any required tax filings

  • Paying outstanding expenses or debts

  • Carrying out distributions as instructed by the trust

We regularly advise trustees on their responsibilities under South Carolina law. Our goal is to help you fulfill your duties properly, avoid mistakes, and complete the process with confidence.
