Probate Assistance Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Certainly not. Our team is adept at managing probate matters across Tennessee as well as across state lines. If you live elsewhere but require assistance with a property in Monroe County, simply reach out and we’ll initiate the necessary process.
Ancillary probate is necessary if a deceased person owned property somewhere besides the primary state they lived in. This special form of probate helps streamline the asset distribution process while aligning with local laws. At Johnson, Murrell, & Associates, we can guide you through the process to ensure compliance and an efficient transfer of property.
Heirs can still receive their inheritance from the deceased’s estate without a will. However, the court procedures may be more complex in certain cases. If a family member has passed away without a legally valid will, please reach out to our office, and we can provide guidance and support.
A handwritten will in Tennessee is valid if it’s in the handwriting of the deceased. However, other stipulations must be met. More convenient options such as online wills are available, but they may not be enforceable by Tennessee courts. The best option is to hire a probate lawyer from Johnson, Murrell & Associates to help with your estate planning.
