In Pennsylvania, you can use a summary probate procedure when estates are worth less than $50,000 (not including funeral costs, real estate and allowable family payments). There is no Affidavit procedure in PA.
Beneficiaries. Any beneficiaries who are named in the will should receive a copy. This allows them to understand any bequests, as well as any trust that has been established for them. If any beneficiary is a minor child, the will should name a legal guardian.
You can expect probate to take at least one year before it can be closed. In more complicated cases, probate can last for several years, especially if someone contests the will.
