| Summary of Services |
Colorado follows the Uniform Probate Code, so a bond is often not required when the will waives it or the interested persons agree. The court may still order a bond to protect an estate in Arapahoe County, and when ordered the amount reflects the value of property under the representative's control plus expected income. |
| Court History |
In Colorado, the District Court handles probate everywhere except Denver, which has its own Probate Court. Estate matters for Arapahoe County are filed accordingly. In Denver, Colorado Judicial Branch serves Arapahoe County for estate and probate administration. This court offers online docket search, so filings and case status for Arapahoe County can often be confirmed online before a bond is requested. |

Some Arapahoe County estates cannot close until missing or unknown heirs are located and notified. If that applies to your case, we can refer you to licensed investigators across the country who specialize in heir searches.
