There are a number of state-specific forms you may need when going through the probate process.

This page lists common OR forms and offers help in locating others. While you are welcome to browse these forms, note that the Tasks Tab will guide you through the use of relevant forms at the appropriate times.

General OR Forms

In Oregon, the local Circuit Court handles wills and estate probate, except in Grant, Harney, Malheur, Sherman, and Wheeler Counties, where the local County Court has jurisdiction (note that Gilliam County transferred responsibility from its County Court to the Circuit Court in 12/23). If you are using EstateExec and you enter the decedent's county of legal residence on the Decedent tab, you will see a direct link to the appropriate court here.

Below you will find links that allow you to download and use some of the more common OR probate forms (you may want to check with your local court for form preferences):

Oregon does not provide state-wide forms (other than for small estates; see below), but you can obtain ready-made forms at stationery stores, you can purchase online at the link above (for example, a petition for probate of will costs ~$10), or you can have a lawyer prepare any necessary documents.

Small OR Estate Forms

Small estates sometimes need only 1 specialized form or affidavit: see Small OR Estates.

Using OR Probate Forms

If you are using a licensed EstateExec estate, information about finding your court will appear here.

As mentioned above, the tasks on the estate's Tasks Tab will list a series of steps that help you understand which form to use when. You may also want to see How to Become Executor for an OR Estate, and Overall Probate Process in OR.
