Re: probate
Unless there is a dispute among the heirs, you can probably probate the will by mail. You may even be able to avoid probate at all if the heirs are in agreement. Consult with a local attorney.

Yes, it is possible to probate the Will without returning to Georgia. Under normal circumstances, a request to take the required oath in your home state will be granted. Thereafter, you should be able to proceed with appropriate administration. Feel free to contact me office if I can be of further assistance.
