Question:
What is a probate estate?
 

Answer:

A probate estate is the total of all assets that go through the probate process once their possessor dies. This generally includes all assets in the deceased person's name and those paid to the estate. It often does not include joint assets, insurance, assets held in trust, or similar assets.
