Senior Newsletter on Probate and Estate Planning

Here are some recent developments that have occurred in the areas of probate practice and guardianship administration specific to Lake County, Ohio:

PROBATE COURT UPDATES:

Lake County Local Rules were recently amended to incorporate the following changes:

1. Operating Hours - The Probate Court is open to the public Monday-Friday, 8am-4:30pm

2. Appraisals - Personal Property appraisals are no longer required. This means that the clause in the Last Will

and Testament with language that waives the appraisal is no longer necessary. Real Property appraisals are

no longer required. The auditor's value will be used unless the heir objecting to that valuation obtains and pays

for the appraiser's service. This is a distinct departure from prior practice and will ease the administration of

the probate estate.

3. Guardianship and Probate Estate Administration - Receipts are now required for every expenditure made on

behalf of the Estate. This is an important item to be aware of ahead of time so that you know to keep a proof

of each expenditure made on behalf of the estate. (Prior practice permitted the heirs to review the accounting

and sign off on it without the need to attach receipts.)
