Different Types of Probate in Arizona

By Kent Berk on May 25th, 2019 in

In Arizona, not all probate cases are the same. There are several types of probate proceedings, and understanding the difference can make a major impact on how long a case takes, how much it costs, and how much court involvement is required.

In this episode of The Berk Brief, Kent Berk, founding attorney at Berk Law Group in Scottsdale, Arizona, explains the different types of probate under Arizona law, including:


✅ Informal probate — the most common and least court-supervised process.
✅ Formal probate — used when there’s a dispute or question about the will, heirs, or appointment of the personal representative.
✅ Supervised probate — when the court must oversee every step of the administration.
✅ Small estate or summary procedures — simplified processes for qualifying estates under certain dollar limits.

If you’re dealing with an Arizona probate or aren’t sure which type applies to your situation, our experienced attorneys can help.
