probate courts
Will validation venues
Probate courts are specialized courts that handle matters related to wills, estates, and the distribution of a deceased person's property.
They verify the validity of wills, appoint executors or administrators, oversee the settlement of debts, and ensure assets pass to rightful heirs.
In some jurisdictions, probate courts also handle guardianships, conservatorships, and name changes.
