what is the law in Delaware about the probate of a will. Does the will

Hi Rich11 --

Yes there is probate court in Delaware.

Court supervised probate usually takes about 12 months. Attorney's
fees are on a percentage basis. There are no taxes on estates under $1
million

There's a some discussion of Delaware probate on this private
attorney's web site.

A lot will depend on the value of the estate?  How much is the estate
worth?  Usually if it is less than $5,000 then there may be simplified
procedures that speed up the process.  You can get your question
answered by contacting the county courthouse in your area, if you live
in Delaware, as that is a simple question that the probate court clerk
can answer easily.

SINCERELY,
