What Is Probate?
When an individual passes away, their last will and testament must be proven valid and executed according to the instructions listed in the will, including who will inherit the assets and other specific instructions listed in the will. This is known as the probate process.
Probate Process in Arkansas
If you are appointed the executor of an estate, you are in charge of handling the probate process, which requires:
- Taking inventory of the assets and debts of the estate
- Paying off debts and taxes
- Distributing the estate to beneficiaries according to the will's instructions
In some cases, there may be disputes that arise during the probate process, such as if family members dispute the validity of the will or if they want to dispute their share of the estate. It is a good idea to hire a Fayetteville attorney who can help resolve any conflicts that may occur during the process.

"Shea was the first attorney to listen to me thoroughly, take me seriously, show compassion, and speak honestly with me about my case."I am so thankful that attorneys like Shea Crosby exist! Admittedly, I didn't know what I needed or wanted prior to my initial consultation with Shea. I had met or spoke with several other lawyers before meeting her. Each and every time I left feeling defeated, insignificant, or like a dollar sign. Shea was the first attorney to listen to me thoroughly, take me seriously, show compassion, and speak honestly with me about my case. Her level of professionalism continued throughout the entirety of my case, which lasted just shy of ten months. Shea was always easily accessible through text, email, and phone calls. She fought for me, and my family, and she believed in me, even at times when others didn't. At the end of the day, Shea helped me negotiate an agreement which provided me and my family the relief and protections we NEEDED, and WANTED. I am so very grateful for her. It's not often one is sad when their legal proceedings have ended (when they've "won"). But that is exactly how I felt. Shea was my advisor, advocate, and by time it was over, I also considered her a friend. Her real world experience made her not only relatable, but often times my confidant. I highly recommend Shea Crosby to anyone needing a family law attorney.
