According to Alabama regulations, an Alabama probate bond is an amount which is:
Essentially, the court will inform you of the amount of surety bond required. Statutorily, the above above formula used to determine the amount of bond required.
For amounts up to and including $100,000, our agency offers you the Alabama probate surety bond immediately upon an application and payment of the premium.
For these amounts, there is neither an underwriter review nor a credit check inquiry in qualifying for the bond. What this means for you is that you are pre-approved; you will just need to pay the premium for at least one year.
For amounts greater than $100,000, qualification for the bond is by completion of an application and an underwriter review. Your credit score and financial standing will play a big part in determining the premium, that is, the price you will pay for the bond’s issuance. All credit inquiries by our agency are “soft inquiries”.
Subject to certain minimum amounts, the estimated premium is typically less than 1% of the amount of surety bond required. With the exception of amounts $100,000 and less, your credit score will play a factor in this.
The Alabama probate bond, when issued, is active for one year from the date of issuance. The bond renews annually for as long as the underlying case is active in probate court.
Our agency will also give you the option to prepay you surety bond for several years in advance. If you choose to do so, you will benefit in two ways: One, you will have greater intervals between premium payment renewals. Secondly, you will have a savings over renewing your premium each year.
The probate surety bond is a financial guarantee for the probate court and any heirs that an appointed administrator will act in a proper fiduciary capacity over an estate. The bond protects against acts of malfeasance, fraud, and theft committed by an administrator.
