Portland, OR estates & probate attorney Stefan Wolf talks about the types of assets that are subject to probate. Assets subject to probate are those that do not automatically transfer ownership upon the owner’s death. This generally includes assets owned solely by an individual, without any joint owner, co-owner, or beneficiary designation. Such assets have no mechanism in place for automatic title transfer to a new owner upon the original owner’s passing.
