SUMMARY DISTRIBUTION

MOBILE AND BALDWIN COUNTY PROBATE ATTORNEY

Summary Distribution

Summary Distribution is part of the Alabama "Small Estates Act" and allows for an estate to be distributed if the totals asset in the estate are less than $32,047. 

What is the different between a "Summary Distribution" and a full probate administration?

Summary Distribution is a probate procedure that only requires thirty (30) days notice to creditors as opposed to six (6) months for a full probate administration. In addition, Summary Distribution is limited in that it can only deal with estate assets that do not involve real property and the total value of estate assets cannot exceed $32,047 (As of December 31st, 2022).
