Filing a Probate Petition: What You Need to Know
The probate process in Colorado officially begins with the filing of a petition in the probate court. This step is crucial as it establishes the legal framework for managing and distributing the deceased’s assets. The petition is typically filed in the county where the decedent resided, although the specific requirements and procedures may vary depending on the county. For instance, larger counties like Denver or Arapahoe may have more streamlined electronic filing systems, while smaller counties might require in-person submissions or additional documentation.
