• Dependent Administration of Your Estate: This form of probate includes more court supervision, generally required by the will or the executor. It’s less common in Texas but rest assured, we are fully prepared to handle it for you.- This is MOST common when there is no will and heirs cannot agree on an independent administration OR regardless of whether there is a will, there are significant creditors and dep admin is used as a tool to make it harder for creditors to make and prove a claim.
• Muniment of Title: If the deceased left a will, had no unpaid unsecured debts, and isn’t subject to a Medicaid claim, Muniment of Title may apply. This straightforward probate form enables the transfer of assets without court supervision. If your situation fits, our skilled attorneys can assist you through this process.
• Small Estate Affidavits & Procedures: If the estate value is at $75,000 or less, and if the estate value does exceed the amount owed to creditors and family, you may avoid probate by filing a simple affidavit with the court or requesting a Small Estate Procedure. Our team can guide you through this process ensuring all requirements are met.
• Letters Testamentary: These are essential for conducting business on behalf of the deceased. Let our team help you obtain these important documents to enable you to manage your loved one’s financial affairs with ease.
