About estate planning and probate law in Tennessee
Wills and trusts, powers of attorney, probate and estate administration, guardianships and estate disputes. In Tennessee the court that handles estates depends on the county — a probate court, a probate division of the circuit court, or the chancery court.
- In Davidson County, the Seventh Circuit Court's Probate Division has exclusive jurisdiction over the administration of estates; Shelby County has a separate Probate Court; in Knox and Montgomery counties the Chancery Court handles probate.
- Who inherits when there is no will, and the deadlines for probating a will, are set by Tennessee law — check with the court clerk or a lawyer.
- HELP4TN (1-844-435-7486) arranges a free consultation with a licensed Tennessee attorney for people who can't afford one.
