Wills & Estates

We receive many calls about handling estate matters, such as the disbursement of motor vehicles, real property, monies or pensions. These matters are usually settled during the estate process. For more information on how to handle an estate, the North Carolina court system has published a pamphlet (PDF) that explains the administration of estates. You may wish to contact the Estates Department of the Iredell Clerk of Superior Court at 704-832-6604.
