So… What Is Probate?

Probate is the court process used to transfer a deceased person’s assets—such as a Cypress home, accounts, vehicles, or personal property—to their heirs or beneficiaries.​

​

As your probate lawyer in Cypress, we help with every part of the process:

​

  • Filing the initial probate petition

  • Getting an executor or administrator appointed

  • Locating, securing, and valuing estate assets

  • Handling Cypress real estate issues (sale, transfer, mortgages)

  • Notifying heirs and creditors

  • Addressing creditor claims and disputes

  • Managing communication with beneficiaries

  • Filing all required court documents

  • Completing distribution once the estate is approved

 

We handle everything so you don’t have to manage the legal procedures alone.

Does Probate Involve Going to Court?

Most Cypress probate cases are handled through the Orange County Superior Court – Probate Division in Santa Ana.​

​

Most clients do not need to go to court.
Your attorney appears for you at all hearings.

​

You may only need to attend if:

​

  • someone challenges the will

  • there is a dispute among heirs

  • litigation directly involves you

 

If that happens, your Cypress probate attorney will guide and represent you every step of the way.

What Our Clients Say

Jen R.

Jordan at JLC Legacy Law was amazing to work with. Probate is not an easy thing to go through, but she was prompt and very helpful through everything. I had heard probate takes well over a year to complete, but with Jordan's help, ours was done in 9 months. I highly recommend working with Jordan.
