Probate assets are property of a decedent that must be distributed through a probate proceeding in a court of law. Probate assets are generally those assets that were titled solely in the decedent's name at death, such as a bank account in sole name, a car in sole name, etc. Non-probate assets pass outside of probate to the surviving joint owner or a beneficiary. Examples include a joint bank account, a bank account with a pay on death (POD) designation, and life insurance with a named beneficiary.
