The first month after a loved one passes is often stressful and confusing.
In Episode 1 of Managing Your Family’s Estate & Probate, Jordan Fainberg walks you step-by-step through the first 30 days — what must be done, what can wait, and how to keep the process organized without feeling overwhelmed.

You’ll learn:

• What really happens in the first 30 days

• Who is legally allowed to file for probate

• How death certificates work (and how many you need)

• Immediate actions vs. things that can wait

• When to contact an attorney — and when you may not need one

• What happens if there is no will

• How real property (the house) fits into the first 30 days

• Common mistakes families make that cause delays

Jordan explains everything in clear, everyday language — no legal jargon — so you know what to do and feel confident navigating the early steps of probate.
