If you are talking about a title to an automobile, yes, go to the Secretary of State. If you mean Deed to a piece of real property, that flows through your letters of authority issued by probate court. Yes, you can proceed in probate court without an attorney. I wouldn't recommend it but yes you can and there should be information provided to you from the probate court as to what your duties and responsibilities are as personal representative.
