PROBATE ASSETS & NON-PROBATE ASSETS

It is also important to know that all property the testator owned, or had an interest in, may not pass through his or her Will.  Only probate assets pass through Wills.  Non-probate assets pass through beneficiary designations.  Examples of non-probate assets are insurance policies and beneficiary-designated accounts at financial institutions.  The attorneys at Smith & Garg will discuss this very important issue with you in order to make certain that all of your property passes as you want it to.
