What is an Affidavit of Small Estate
Hi, I’m Oklahoma Probate Attorney Meg Prestage and today I want to talk to you about the Affidavit of Small Estate. You can use an Affidavit of Small Estate when your loved one died without a last will and testament and that is the most important part before you may use an Affidavit of Small Estate.
Those Affidavits are good for accessing bank accounts and things that are worth less than $50,000. It cannot be $50,000 in one cent. That means it’s over $50,000. It must be less than $50,000. You cannot use an Affidavit of Small Estate for real property. That would require you probating the estate of the loved one.
