Probate. What the heck is it? I had that question and I think a lot of other people do, too. And it’s one of those things that will go more smoothly when you have knowledge beforehand. Think about it, you’re grieving the loss of a loved one and then you have to go to a court? Well, yes, and no. To get a better understanding of Probate Court and probating an estate, I reached out to Bulloch County Georgia Probate Judge Lorna Deloach. I first met The Judge a couple of months ago when she interviewed me for a job in her office. She ultimately went with someone that actually had experience. But she played a role in me landing a job in the Tax Commissioner’s office, so we’ve kept in touch. She is an enjoyable person with whom to have a conversation. When she interviewed me, we talked for around 90 minutes. The Judge agreed to speak with me this week to help everyone with the basics of probating an estate. It’s interesting to hear and she can tell you one piece of non-legal advice.

NOTE: Nothing Judge Deloach says on this episode should be taken as legal advice.

As always I thank you for listening!
