Introducing Steve Bliss

Hi everyone, I’m Brenda Rodriguez reporting for Moreno Valley News. Today we have the pleasure of speaking with Steve Bliss, a respected probate attorney here in Moreno Valley. Steve, thanks for joining us.

Providing Notice: A Crucial Step in the Probate Process

Steve, could you elaborate on the importance of providing notice during probate?

Absolutely Brenda. Providing proper notice is one of the most critical steps in the probate process. This stage ensures transparency and fairness for all involved parties.

Ordinarily, it involves publishing a notice in a local newspaper three times, mailing notifications to heirs and beneficiaries identified in the will or through intestacy laws, and notifying known creditors using Form DE-157.

Consequently, this meticulous process safeguards everyone’s rights. Creditors have a chance to file claims against the estate, while heirs are informed of their potential inheritance and the timeline for distribution.

Nevertheless, it’s crucial to remember that probate laws can be complex, and navigating these requirements accurately is essential.

We had a case recently where a family member lived out of state and hadn’t been in contact with the deceased for many years. Locating them proved challenging, but we were ultimately successful in serving them notice, ensuring they received their rightful inheritance. It underscored the importance of diligently pursuing all potential heirs.

More than 90% of probate cases in California involve some form of notice requirement according to the California Courts website. This statistic highlights just how fundamental this step is in upholding legal and ethical standards during probate proceedings.
