What is the name of your state? CA
My father-in-law recently passed away without a will. He was not married and my husband is the decedent's only child. The only property of value my father-in-law owned was 2 cars. The CA Department of Motor Vehicles does not require probate for the vehicles to be transferred into my husband's name but I am concerned about my father-in-law's outstanding debt. I know he had unpaid medical bills and I'm wondering if we have to go through the probate process in case the vehicles can be used to satisfy those debts.What is the name of your state?
