When is Judicial Probate required in Maryland? (from a Baltimore Maryland Estate Administration Attorney)

Judicial Probate can be triggered if one of the following happens:
1. An interested person makes the request.
2. A creditor makes the request after there has been no administrative probate opened in Maryland for the estate.
3. If the petition for Maryland administrative probate is incomplete or incorrect. This mistake could be made by a family member or an inexperienced probate attorney.
4. If the Will has a defect, such as it has been torn, burned or marked in ways that make it difficult to understand.
5. The Will has been completed destroyed or lost.
