Maryland Probate: Do I File a Will With No Assets?

This is a common question people have and reasonable to wonder if a person’s Will needs to be filed if the person died with no assets. Under Maryland Law, the decedent’s Will must be filed in the jurisdiction of domicile even if the person died without any assets. This does not mean that an estate will have to be opened. It’s possible that an estate will not be opened as there are no assets. But if you have a Will of a decedent you should file it with the county.
