Did You Know?

A Wrongful Death Is Treated In The Same Manner As A Regular Probate.

Probate would still apply to the administration of the decedent’s estate. Action may be taken in a separate civil case for a wrongful death action. If a wrongful death action is the only asset of the estate, many courts have a different process than regular probate.
