Welcome to Pro Per Probate

If you’ve ever asked yourself:

• “Why won’t my sibling show me the Will?”
• “Can a Trustee hide money from beneficiaries?”
• “What is the first step if I’ve been left out of an inheritance?”
• “How long do I have to contest a Trust in California?”
• or “Do I need a lawyer to fight a Trustee?”

you are not alone.

Many people searching for answers about inheritance disputes, probate court, trusts, financial accountings, and contested wills feel overwhelmed long before they ever understand the legal terminology involved.

Often, people are not searching for phrases like “standing,” “fiduciary duty,” or “Probate Code 17200.” They are searching for answers to emotionally difficult questions after a parent, spouse, or family member passes away.

Pro Per Probate was created to help bridge that gap.

This site provides educational resources for individuals navigating California probate disputes, trust litigation, inheritance conflicts, and financial accountability issues without a lawyer.

Here, you’ll find:

• free educational quizzes,
• probate and trust resources,
• evidence and accounting toolkits,
• step-by-step educational guides,
• and practical information designed to help you better understand the probate process before making important decisions.

Whether you were disinherited, left in the dark financially, or simply trying to understand what happens next, this site was designed to provide an educational starting point.
