Probate is a document that gives you the legal authority to manage someone’s estate. It allows executors to close accounts, settle debts, distribute estates and more, in accordance to the instructions in someone’s will.
If there is a will, the named executor(s) are responsible for obtaining probate. If there is no will, the closest living relative can apply for a ‘grant of letters of administration’.
