Overview:

A Probate Bond, also known as an estate bond or fiduciary bond, is a type of surety bond required by the court for individuals appointed to manage the estate of a deceased person. Its primary purpose is to ensure that the executor or administrator of the estate performs their duties in accordance with the law and the terms of the will or court order. The bond acts as a financial guarantee that the estate’s assets will be managed and distributed properly, safeguarding the interests of beneficiaries and creditors. The requirements for obtaining a probate bond typically include a credit check and an assessment of the individual’s financial standing. The bond amount is usually determined by the value of the estate’s assets and liabilities, ensuring adequate coverage for potential mismanagement or fraud.

Who Needs It:

Probate Bonds are essential for individuals who have been appointed by a court to serve as executors or administrators of an estate. This includes those named in a will as executors, as well as individuals appointed by the court when no will exists or when the named executor is unable or unwilling to serve. The bond is necessary to protect the estate’s beneficiaries and creditors from potential losses due to the mismanagement or fraudulent actions of the executor or administrator. In some cases, the court may waive the bond requirement if the will explicitly states that no bond is needed, or if all beneficiaries agree to waive it. However, in most situations, the bond is a mandatory requirement to ensure the fiduciary responsibilities are upheld. Executors and administrators need this bond to legally fulfill their roles and to provide peace of mind to all parties involved that the estate will be handled with integrity and transparency.

FAQ

What is a surety bond?

A surety bond is a financial guarantee that ensures the bonded party (you or your business) will fulfill their obligations, such as complying with laws, regulations, or contracts. If these obligations are not met, the bond protects the obligee (the party requiring the bond) by compensating them for any losses.

What is an obligee?

An obligee is the person or organization that requires you to get a bond. It could be a government agency, a contractor, or another entity that needs assurance you will meet certain legal or contractual obligations.

How does the bond purchase process work on your website?

Here’s how our simple process works:

  1. Purchase your bond: Select your bond and choose between monthly or annual payment options. Complete the purchase through our secure platform.
  2. Provide additional information: After your purchase, you’ll be directed to a thank-you page where we may request additional details. You can provide this information right away or choose to be contacted later by email, phone, or SMS.
  3. Bond processing: We will process your application with the information provided.
  4. Bond issuance: We will issue your bond and send it to you via email in PDF format. If a physical bond is required by the obligee, we will mail it to you, though this is rare.
How long does it take to receive my bond?

Most bonds are issued shortly after you provide the necessary information. You will receive the bond via email in PDF format. A physical copy will only be mailed if required by the obligee.

How do renewals work?

We offer two convenient payment options for bonds that require renewal:

  • Monthly payments or annual payments, both of which automatically renew. You’ll receive automatic reminders before renewal.
  • Cancellation: You can cancel any time before the bond renewal date, but you must complete the original term. Monthly subscriptions cannot be canceled without completing 12 payments.
What payment methods do you accept?

We accept Apple PayPayPalGoogle Pay, and all major U.S. Credit Cards. Payments are processed through our secure and PCI-compliant systems, ensuring your data is safe. We provide multiple trusted payment options for a seamless transaction.

What are the benefits of monthly subscription payments?

Monthly payments give you the flexibility to spread out the cost of your bond over time, making it easier to manage cash flow. Instead of paying for a full year upfront, you can choose to pay smaller monthly payments. This allows you to maintain bond coverage without a large initial expense.

What are the benefits of obtaining a bond?

Having the right bond ensures you are compliant with local, state, or federal regulations, helping you avoid fines, penalties, or business disruption. With our auto-renewal feature, you never have to worry about lapses in coverage, ensuring your business stays protected year-round.

Is my information secure when I apply online?

Yes, your information is highly secure. Our platform is fully PCI-compliant and we use advanced encryption technology to protect your payment details. We prioritize your privacy and security at every step of the process.

Can I get a refund if I no longer need the bond?

Refunds are handled on a case-by-case basis, depending on the bond type and your state’s regulations. Contact our support team for help with refund requests.

What types of bonds do you offer?

Our eCommerce platform specializes in commercial bonds, primarily focusing on license and permit bonds. We offer all bonds including contract bonds and fiduciary bonds. We provide bonds across all 50 U.S. states and U.S. territories, including Guam. Please note, we do not offer international bonds at this time. Visit our Surety Bond Shop to find your bond now.

Can I provide information later if I don’t have it immediately?

Yes! If you don’t have the required information ready, you can choose to provide it later. After purchasing your bond, we can contact you by email, phone, or SMS to gather the necessary details.

What are my payment options, and how do monthly and annual payments work?

You can choose between monthly or annual payment plans. Monthly payments offer more flexibility and help spread out costs over time, making it easier to manage cash flow. Both payment plans renew automatically, and you’ll receive reminders before your bond is due for renewal.

It’s simple! Find the bond you need here, purchase your bond, and enjoy quick approval and delivery.
