A: The process of retitling assets of a person after he or she passes is called probate. A probate attorney can help walk you through how to do this. Personalized advice cannot be given in this forum. A consultation with a probate attorney is necessary because the process depends a great deal on the size of the estate, the asset mix, the debts of the decedent, and more.
