What is Probate and How Does it Work in New Mexico?
Legally speaking, probate is the court-supervised procedure for distributing a deceased person's estate to their rightful heirs and beneficiaries and includes settling any debts with creditors.
At Rio Grande Estate Planning, we handle all facets of the probate process, from court appointing a personal representative regardless of whether there was a will to final asset distribution. Our mission is to make this process as straightforward and stress-free for our clients as we can.
