Q: What is probate?
A: Probate is the legal process through which a deceased person's estate is administered and distributed according to their will or state law if no will exists. This involves validating the will, inventorying assets, paying debts and taxes, and distributing the remaining assets to the rightful heirs.
Q: Who needs probate services?
A: Probate services are needed whenever someone passes away and leaves a will or, in the absence of a will, when the estate's assets exceed the threshold for exempt administration in Texas. Our firm assists families, executors, beneficiaries, and creditors throughout the probate process.
Q: How long does probate take?
A: The duration of probate varies significantly depending on the complexity of the estate, whether there are disputes among beneficiaries, the value of the assets, and whether the estate qualifies for simplified or exempt administration. Our firm works efficiently to manage the process and provide timely updates.
Q: Do I need a lawyer for probate?
A: While it is possible to handle probate without legal representation, the complexities of Texas probate law often benefit from professional guidance. An attorney can help ensure compliance with legal requirements, protect your interests, and navigate potential challenges effectively.

A: We offer comprehensive probate services including estate administration, will preparation and probate, trust administration, contested probate litigation, and fiduciary representation for executors or administrators.
