It can be highly beneficial to divide up the estate of your loved one by filing a small estate affidavit rather than going through the probate process. Not only does it take a fraction of the time that #probate typically would, but small estate affidavits also save you the exorbitant costs of going to court. In Maine, any estate valued at less than $40,000 is considered a small estate.
