Probate

What is Probate?

Probate is a court-supervised procedure of administering a deceased person's estate. The probate process involves authenticating a will, paying off debts, and distributing assets to beneficiaries. Unfortunately, it can be burdensome, timely, and expensive...


Probate without a will

If the deceased person died without having a will, they die "intestate." In this situation, the court follows Texas intestacy laws to distribute the assets of the decedent.


Probate with a will

If the deceased person had a will,  the court determines that the will is valid and authentic. After this determination the court appoints a personal representative (executor or administrator) to administer the estate.
