What is the probate of a will?

Attorney Gadi Zohar explains:

The probative of a will is the court process of executing whatever was written in the will.

So it starts out with the petition for probate. An executor is appointed, and then that person goes through and does what needs to be done as executor and ultimately distributes the assets. However, they were set to be distributed in the will.
