FAQ

A Letter of Appointment of Executor helps prove you have been put in charge of someone's estate after they have passed away. As Executor, you've been given the duty to manage the estate and carry out the directions of the will; however, a court may require official documentation.

What is a Notice of Probate? Notice of Probate is explained in Surrogate's Court Procedure Act (SCPA) § 1409. (1) Essentially it is a statutory formality that puts certain classes of people on notice that the decedent has died and that your name is listed somewhere in the will.

Once the will has been probated, the New Jersey Rules of Court, specifically Rule -6, requires an executor of an estate to mail a Notice of Probate to all beneficiaries and the next-of-kin of the deceased at their last known addresses within 60 days of the probate of the will.

Notice requirements: Notice must be given by first class mail or by personally delivering a copy to each person or entity at least 15 days prior to the hearing. Each person should receive a copy of the "Notice of Petition to Administer Estate" showing the hearing date information.

After the Will has been entered into Probate, the executor must within 60 days of the date of the probate give Notice of Probate (R. -6) to all beneficiaries under the Will and to all persons who would have inherited by intestacy (those next of kin listed on the Application For Probate).
