In my many years as a New York probate attorney, I have represented numerous clients in probate cases. Most often my relationship with a client begins when I am asked this question, “How long will the New York probate process take?” In reality, this is only part of the question. What most parties in a New York probate hearing really want to know is, “When will I receive my share of the New York State estate’s assets?” The answer to these two questions depends on several factors, including the speed that the petition can be completed and filed with the New York probate court, and then the length of time that the court will take to rule on the case. Nevertheless, I will say that the New York probate process in general takes anywhere from a little over six months to a few years. Therefore, I submit to you three rules of thumb, which I hope you will helpful and moderate your expectations.
