Settled Estate

Settled Estate is a comprehensive online resource dedicated to helping executors, administrators, and families navigate the complex probate and estate settlement process across the United States. Our platform provides free, county-by-county probate guides that break down the legal requirements, court contacts, filing fees, and step-by-step procedures specific to each jurisdiction.
We understand that losing a loved one is already an emotionally challenging experience, and dealing with legal paperwork and court proceedings can feel overwhelming. That is why Settled Estate was created — to provide clear, accessible, and actionable guidance that empowers individuals to handle estate matters with confidence.
Our guides currently cover key states including Florida, California, and Texas, with plans to expand nationwide. Each guide includes detailed information about local probate courts and their contact information, required documents and forms for filing, filing fees and associated costs broken down by county, timelines and deadlines to be aware of, and step-by-step checklists that walk you through the entire process from start to finish.
Whether you are serving as an executor for the first time or you are a family member trying to understand what happens after a loved one passes away, Settled Estate provides the resources you need. Our content is written in plain language, avoiding complex legal jargon whenever possible, so that anyone can understand their rights and responsibilities.
In addition to our probate guides, we offer resources on estate planning, understanding wills and trusts, and navigating the legal aspects of inheritance. Our mission is to make the estate settlement process as straightforward and stress-free as possible for every family.
Settled Estate is based in Miami, Florida, and serves families and legal professionals throughout the country. We are committed to providing accurate, up-to-date information and continuously improving our guides based on changes in state and local probate laws.
