A Message From the President: Cristine McBurney
Dear colleagues and friends,
I am excited to announce the official launch of our newly designed Rhode Island Probate Judges Association website!
After months of hard work and collaboration, we are proud to offer a user-friendly, informative, and accessible online platform to serve our members and the public.
Our new website is designed to better meet the needs of the public by providing easy access to resources, including court schedules, administrative rules, and public files for the courts that offer online access. You will also find a link to the Rhode Island probate forms.
We invite you to explore the site and take full advantage of the resources available. Whether you are seeking information on a specific case or looking for a form, this website is here to support you.
We hope this new online resource will help strengthen our efforts to improve the administration of justice. Thank you to all the judges and clerks who supported this effort.
Warm regards,
Cristine L. McBurney
President,
Rhode Island Probate Judges Association
