Q. How do I start probating a NH Estate if I have the will of a NH resident?

A. The executor is named in the will by the decedent. This named individual will bear the responsibility and burden to administer the estate. The administrator must file a motion with the Court and be appointed. There are deadlines for filings until the estate is closed. Depending on the value of the estate, it may be beneficial to retain an attorney to assist the administrator in probating the estate.

Attorney Richard E. Clark can be contacted at (603)431-0009.
