Probate

[Shane Baganz]

Hi all, long time reader, first time post.  I could use help on probate.  I have not found a list service that will pull probate in Wisconsin.  I have contacted all mentioned in the forums.  Probate in the legal process has many steps, each has a specific name (summary settlement, informal proceeding, etc)

My questions are:

1. At what step does one pull the probate list?

2. Is there a particular window of time that probate letters work best?

Putting myself in the shoes of those left behind, I certainly do not wish to offend, but certainly may help them.  When is the timing right?

Thank you for help!
