Probate Clerk’s Office
The Probate Court serves as the judicial authority for matters relating to the administration of decedents’ estates, trusts, guardianships, adoptions, name changes, and determinations of mental competency. The court supervises fiduciaries, reviews legal filings, resolves disputes concerning estates and inheritances, and ensures compliance with statutory requirements. By providing judicial oversight in matters involving property rights, family relationships, and the welfare of protected persons, the Probate Court plays a vital role in maintaining legal accountability and safeguarding the interests of individuals and families.
