In their
300-year history, the probate courts have often been called
"neighborhood courts" because of their informality and
accessibility. Today, the courts are also known as "family
courts" because, in addition to overseeing decedents'
estates and trusts, they handle a wide range of sensitive
issues affecting children, the elderly, persons with mental
retardation, and persons with psychiatric disabilities. This
Web site continues the courts' tradition of providing
prompt, efficient service to Connecticut's citizens.
