How Probate Laws Work in New Hampshire
probateadvance.com › new-hampshire-probate-lawsWhile probate is generally required for estates in New Hampshire, there are exceptions. The best way to avoid probate with an estate is to place it in a revocable living trust. This allows the person to still have control over the assets and even to change their mind. At the same time, the named beneficiary receives the assets of the trust without the need for probate.
