Edison Probate Resources

Do you call Edison, New Jersey home? Are you interested in moving to this area in the future?

There’s a lot to know about Edison, including the fact that it’s located in Middlesex County, has a population of roughly 100,000, and is home to all types of people.

It doesn’t matter if you’re raising a family or looking for somewhere to retire, you’ll find everything you’re looking for in Edison – plus so much more.

One of the nice things about living in Edison is the access you gain to a variety of different professionals. For example, you won’t have any problem finding estate planning and elder law advice. This includes guidance with the probate process, which means the following:

  • Submitting the will to the appropriate court, based on where the deceased person lived
  • Identifying all debts and assets
  • Paying debts and taxes
  • Distributing assets to the appropriate heirs as outlined in the will

No one wants to think about the probate process, but you could find yourself face to face with it at some point in the near future.

While you can always consult with a probate attorney, it often makes sense to visit these online resources to learn more:

  1. Middlesex County Official Surrogate Website

There is plenty of information on the probate process here, as the surrogate is responsible for all the following (direct from the website):

  • Probate Wills
  • Process adoptions
  • Process contested probate matters
  • Process alleged incompetents
  • Film and record all probate proceedings
  • Invest minors’ funds
  • Appoint guardians of minors
  • Administration of estates without wills

Even if you have no clue of what you’re doing, you can always reach out to this department for guidance and answers to your questions.

  1. Township of Edison Website

If it has anything to do with the Township of Edison, you’re likely to find it on this website.

It may not provide in depth information on the probate process, but it’s a good place to find basic guidance and links to professionals who may be able to assist.

As a resident of Edison, get used to visiting this website when you require local information. There is no better place to find it.

  1. FindLaw

Even though it’s a general website with information on all the states, FindLaw has many of the things you’re looking for. Here’s an excerpt from the site, giving you a better idea of what happens during the probate process in Edison, NJ:

“In the state of New Jersey all probate cases go through the county Surrogate Court (PDF). The Surrogate Court will distribute the required legal documents: either “Letters of Testamentary” for an executor or “Letters of Administration” for the administrator.”

If you want to learn more about probate laws, among a variety of other details, FindLaw is one of the better resources.

Final Thoughts

Many people may think it’s a challenge to learn more about probate, but with these resources you’ll feel much better.

In addition to reading about probate on these websites, you should also discuss your personal situation with an attorney.

If you need any help, you’re in the right place. You can contact our law firm and we’ll do whatever it takes to provide the assistance you require during this difficult time.
