The Probate Process
The purpose of the administration of an estate is to ultimately pass good title to property to the rightful recipient. It serves to ensure that the decedent’s desires as stated in his or her last valid Will are carried out and it protects certain creditors.
Trust Administration
Your primary duties as Trustee is to collect the trust assets, pay last illness and funeral expenses, just debts of the Settlor, and then distribute the assets in accordance with the trust provisions.

Essentially, an “estate plan” is your blueprint for what you want to happen to your property when you are deceased. But it is also much more than that; it is the process of putting your personal and financial affairs in order in contemplation of various life events.
