FAQ
A petition to partition is considered a special proceeding by our legislature, meaning it follows a different set of procedures. It must be filed with the Clerk of Court in the Superior Court division of the county (or one of the counties) where the real estate is located.
A partition action usually takes between six to nine months depending on the circumstances and the complexity of each case. The most significant factor is whether the partition is being handled by an attorney who practices only in partition law.
Assets that pass directly to beneficiaries without having to go through probate include: Any property jointly owned by the decedent and a survivor. Any property held in a trust. Life insurance policies with named beneficiaries. Retirement accounts with named beneficiaries. Bank accounts with named beneficiaries.
Creating a trust is an excellent option for avoiding probate, as well as some of the unintended consequences described above. A living trust is one of the most common types of trust, and it allows you to use and control all assets in the trust during your lifetime.
Claims of $25,000 or less are handled in District Court. Claims greater than $25,000 are handled in Circuit Court.
Probate Court has exclusive jurisdiction over certain special types of cases: estates, guardianships of incompetent persons and minors, name changes of adults and minors, and adoptions. The Probate Court also issues marriage licenses.
The court's respon- sibility is to handle an estate when someone dies and to determine whether or not that person's residence and property lies within the county in order to probate the decedent's estate. The court must then appoint a personal repre- sentative for the estate and admit the will of the decedent.
In unsupervised probate, the personal representative is responsible for administering the estate without direct court oversight. This type of probate is typically used when the estate is straightforward, and there are no disputes among heirs or creditors. This is the simpler and less costly way to probate an estate.
