Probate Law - As introduced, requires the personal representative to notify beneficiaries or intestate heirs of their right to file exceptions to claims of creditors filed against an estate; makes various other changes regarding wills and claims of creditors against an estate. - Amends TCA Title 30 and Title 32.

SB 541 requires personal representatives (like executors) to notify beneficiaries named in a will or intestate heirs (those inheriting without a will) about their right to challenge creditor claims against an estate. It adds specific procedures: beneficiaries must file exceptions to creditor claims within 30 days after the estate’s creditor notice period, and creditors can similarly challenge other creditors’ claims. The bill amends Tennessee’s probate code (TCA Titles 30 and 32) to clarify timelines for filing exceptions and defines key terms like "holographic will" and "nuncupative will." These changes directly affect estate beneficiaries, heirs, personal representatives, and creditors involved in probate disputes over unpaid debts.
