Virginia Estate Planning Basics Real estate and estates above $50,000 in personal property must use formal probate in Virigina. Estates below $50,000 can use a streamlined process. Assets in trusts as well as non-probate assets like life insurance and 401(k)s with beneficiaries also avoid probate.
In Virginia, an estate will need to be probated when a person dies with property valued at more than $50,000. So, to avoid probate, you must either have a very small estate or take steps to ensure that your assets transfer automatically to beneficiaries.
There is no set time frame in which a will must be probated or an estate administered. It is recommended the initial steps in the estate process start within 30 days after death. For questions, call your attorney or the Circuit Court Clerk's Office Probate Division.
In general, following the death of a decedent, a Personal Representative needs to contact the Probate Division of the Circuit Court Clerk's office in the county or city where the decedent (i) had a known place of residence; (ii) if no known place of residence, then where he or she owned real estate; or (iii) if no real ...

In Virginia, the Circuit Court has jurisdiction over the probate process. The process is initiated by the filing of a Last Will and Testament, if one exists, and the qualification of a Personal Representative to administer the estate.

In Virginia, an estate will need to be probated when a person dies with property valued at more than $50,000. So, to avoid probate, you must either have a very small estate or take steps to ensure that your assets transfer automatically to beneficiaries.
Within 30 days of qualification, the Personal Representative is required to provide written notice of the opening of the probate matter and the qualification of the Personal Representative to certain interested parties, namely the decedent's heirs-at-law and rightful beneficiaries. See Virginia Code § 64.2-508.
Note: Virginia does not issue “letters testamentary”. A qualification certificate stamped with the seal of the Court is issued showing that an executor or administrator has been qualified, posted bond and has authority to act on behalf of the estate.
