FAQ
Probate court is conducted at the county level, and each county may have its own set of forms. Many states have passed uniform court document legislation and the majority of court forms can be found at the state level.
Some of the documents that are required for probate include: The deceased's will. Death certificate. Inventory of assets and liabilities. Bank statements and financial records. Tax returns. Proof of debts and expenses.
Probate opens in the deceased's state of residence. You cannot move probate to your state. If the decedent owned property in other states, you must also open ancillary proceedings in those states. You may need to retain legal counsel in each state to help with ancillary probate.
Can you probate a will in Texas without a lawyer? Yes, but it's not always recommended — and some Texas counties don't allow a will to be probated without a lawyer. If you plan to apply for a probate alternative (like a muniment of title or an out-of-court affidavit), you don't need to hire an estate attorney.

If there is a will, you may be able to probate it as a "muniment of title." This option is available when: the estate has no debts (except for a mortgage or other debts secured by a real estate lien); or. administration isn't needed for another reason.
If you are dealing with an estate where you are the only beneficiary or heir, you are not legally required to hire an attorney. If the estate has more than you as the beneficiary or heir, then you do have to hire a probate attorney.
Independent administration: This is the most common type of probate administration in Texas. Compared to dependent administration, this process is much less expensive because the administrator does not need to go to court very often, nor does he or she usually have to post a bond.
