The judicial procedure by which a court undertakes the management, settlement and distribution of the estate of a person who died intestate is called an Administration. The judicial procedure by which a will is determined to be valid is called Probate.
However, informal use of the word 'probate' encompasses both of the terms above by referring to a judicial process by which a court appointed representative handles a decedent's estate under the supervision of the court.

What if you are to receive something from a will how long is the process?
In the United Kingdom this process can take six months or more. An estate of a deceased person can not be divided up for at least the first six months after a death, this is to ensure that any person or company who may have been owed funds from the deceased persons estate has time to claim them. So really the earliest you can ever expect an inheritance in the United Kingdom is after six months, even then it will depend on how quick those looking after the estate act.
