What the film shows

Builds the estate's asset inventory at date-of-death values from statements, deeds and titles

Agents read every statement, deed, title and policy, value each asset as of the date of death (securities at the mean of the day's high and low, interest accrued to the day, vehicles at guide value), set aside what passes outside probate, list what needs a formal appraisal and draft the court form. The attorney approves every value; the executor signs.
