Questions
Connecticut’s probate court system is built on a 300-year-old
foundation of commitment to service, integrity, and the rule of law. Today, in addition to their traditional role
of overseeing decedents’ estates and trusts, the probate courts handle a wide range of sensitive issues affecting
children, the elderly, persons with intellectual disability, and individuals with psychiatric disabilities. In
carrying out their responsibilities, the probate courts strive to protect the rights of individuals while affording
those involved in probate matters an approachable and consumer-friendly environment.
Our goal in presenting this website is to continue the courts’
tradition of providing prompt, efficient service to Connecticut's citizens. The site includes a court finder with
contact information about each court, materials explaining various aspects of probate law, and fillable forms that
can be used in probate proceedings.
I hope that you find
this site to be a useful tool. |
