Do you have to go to court to dispose of someone's property (house, contents, jewelry, car) if they died intestate and the heirs are only her children?

Re: dying intestate
Maybe. Did she leave any debts? If so, probate with administration may be necessary. If her estate is under $50,000 a Small Estate administration may be done. If it's just a matter of transferring titles, you may get by with an Affidavit of Heirship.
