Do all wills have to go through probate in Minnesota?

In Minnesota, not all wills must go through probate. If a deceased person's assets are below a certain value threshold, typically around $75,000 for personal property, they may qualify for a simplified process or be exempt from probate altogether. Additionally, certain assets, like those held in joint tenancy or with designated beneficiaries, may pass outside of probate. However, if the estate exceeds the threshold or if there are disputes among heirs, probate may be necessary to settle the estate.
