Who handles an estate when someone dies without a will?

In New York, the Surrogate’s Court may appoint an administrator to manage the estate. The administrator takes on important responsibilities, including identifying and collecting assets, addressing estate obligations, and ultimately distributing property to the appropriate heirs.

We explain who may serve as an administrator and what the role involves:

What exactly is Surrogate’s Court, and why might your family need to go there?

In New York, Surrogate’s Court handles matters involving estates, including probate proceedings and the administration of estates when someone dies without a will. The court also addresses certain trust, guardianship, and related proceedings.

If you're handling a loved one’s estate, understanding the role of Surrogate’s Court can make the legal process feel less unfamiliar.

We explain the basics here:

Who has the legal authority to handle an estate when someone dies without a will?

In New York, the Surrogate’s Court may issue Letters of Administration to an appointed administrator. These court-issued documents give the administrator authority to act on behalf of the estate, including handling assets and carrying out other estate administration responsibilities.

We explain what Letters of Administration mean and why they're important:

Probating a will in New York can feel overwhelming, especially when you're also dealing with the loss of a loved one.

While every estate is different, probate generally involves three major phases: asking the Surrogate’s Court to admit the will and appoint an executor, administering the estate by identifying assets and debts, and finally accounting for estate activity before distributing the remaining property to beneficiaries.

We break the process down step by step:

Who decides where your property goes if you die without a will?

In New York, dying without a valid will is known as dying intestate. Instead of following instructions you chose, your estate is distributed according to New York’s intestacy laws. Who inherits can depend on which family members survive you.

We explain what dying without a will can mean for your estate and loved ones:
