Re: Probate
If there is no property of the estate other than a car, there need be no probate. Small estates under $50,000 of value can have the assets collected by the entitled person by affidavit to the holders of property, or in this case to the Motor Vehicle Division to get a new title. You must wait until 30 days after the death, and produce a death certificate with the affidavit. Motor Vehicle has the forms. Call them. IF you need help selling the car, you can call us at 480.835.1500.
Good luck.
