A will protects nothing, at least not from the risks and costs of probate. A will says who you want to receive your assets or property, but they still have to go through probate court if they are held in your name when you die. In other words, the only way to protect properties or assets from probate is to ensure they are not held in your name when you pass. This can be done through automatic beneficiaries for intangible assets like bank accounts, but for property, it must be done through different estate planning tools like trusts.
