Questions

Common questions, answered

How long does probate take in Texas?

An uncontested independent administration often takes a few months, depending on the court and the estate. Complex or contested matters take longer.

What if there is no will?

The estate is administered under Texas intestacy law, which may require additional steps such as a determination of heirship. We can guide you through it.

What does probate cost?

Flat fees for uncontested probate start at $5,997. The final fee depends on the estate and court requirements, confirmed at a no-fee consultation.

What is the four-year deadline?

In Texas, a will generally must be admitted to probate within four years of death. After that, the process becomes significantly more complex. If you are approaching or past that mark, contact us promptly.
