Managing The Legal Aspects of a Deceased Person’s Estate

A probate attorney plays a critical role in managing the legal aspects of a deceased person’s estate. Our probate attorneys assist with tasks such as:

• Filing the necessary court documents to initiate probate.
• Guiding executors and administrators through their responsibilities.
• Resolving outstanding debts and taxes from the estate.
• Distributing assets to beneficiaries according to the will or state laws.
• Addressing disputes or challenges that may arise during the probate process.

With extensive experience in probate administration, we ensure that our client’s estates are handled efficiently and in full compliance with Texas laws.

Not every estate requires a probate attorney, but hiring one can save time, reduce stress, and prevent costly errors. You may need the assistance of a probate attorney if:

• The estate is large or includes complex assets such as businesses or real estate.
• There is no valid will, and the estate must go through Texas’ intestate succession laws.
• There are disputes among beneficiaries or challenges to the will.
• You’re unfamiliar with probate laws and need guidance to avoid mistakes.

If you’re unsure whether you need an attorney, contact our team today to discuss your situation.

Understanding Texas Probate Law

The laws governing the probate process vary by state, and Texas has unique rules. For example:

• Simplified Procedures: Texas offers a simplified probate process for small estates.
• Executor Responsibilities: Executors are required to file an inventory of the estate’s assets and ensure all debts are paid before distributing property.
• Time-Sensitive Requirements: Certain documents must be filed with the court within a specific timeframe.

Our probate attorneys have a deep understanding of Texas probate laws and are here to ensure every step is handled correctly.
