Why Probate Matters in Michigan

Probate is the legal process through which a person’s estate is validated, managed, and distributed after they pass away. In Michigan, the probate court oversees everything from verifying a Will to ensuring all assets, debts, and responsibilities are handled properly. Without experienced legal guidance, probate can become time-consuming, confusing, and emotionally overwhelming for families. Disputes may arise, paperwork may be rejected, and court delays may occur — especially when procedures are not followed precisely.

A dedicated Michigan Probate Law Firm like The Boora Law Group, P.L.C. can help ensure:

The Will is properly validated by Michigan’s probate court
Assets are transferred according to Michigan law
Debts, taxes, and obligations are settled correctly
Family conflicts are minimized or prevented
Court filings and deadlines are met on time
Your loved one’s wishes are fully respected

We provide clear, compassionate guidance so your family can move forward with confidence and peace of mind.

Key Michigan Probate Facts

Probate Is Required When Assets Are in the Decedent’s Name Alone

Without joint ownership or beneficiary designations, probate is necessary.

Michigan Recognizes Both Formal and Informal Probate

Informal probate is faster and simpler; formal probate is required for disputes or complex cases.

A Will Must Be Validated by the Court

Even if a person left a Will, the court must approve it before assets can be distributed.

Intestate Estates Follow Michigan’s Succession Laws

If there is no Will, the State of Michigan decides who receives property.

Understanding these rules helps families avoid confusion and costly mistakes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a probate attorney in Michigan?

While the court does not require an attorney, probate often involves complex filings, deadlines, and legal procedures. A Michigan Probate Law Firm ensures accuracy, reduces delays, and prevents costly errors.

How long does probate take in Michigan?

Simple estates may take 4–6 months; more complex or contested cases may take longer due to court timelines, disputes, or asset complexities.

The estate goes through intestate probate. Michigan law decides who inherits, and we guide you through each required step.
