We help families across Texas navigate probate efficiently — whether there is a will or not — with clear guidance every step of the way.

Dealing with probate after losing a loved one can feel overwhelming. Between court procedures, legal requirements, and family responsibilities, it’s easy to feel unsure about what to do next.

At Garza Legal Group, we help clients handle probate matters quickly, correctly, and with as little stress as possible. Whether your loved one left a will or passed without one, we will guide you through the process and make sure everything is handled properly under Texas law.

Probate With a Will (Testate Probate in Texas)

If your loved one left a will, the probate process is typically more straightforward.

We assist clients with:

  • Filing the application to probate the will

  • Getting appointed as executor

  • Obtaining Letters Testamentary

  • Handling court requirements and hearings

  • Transferring assets to beneficiaries

In many cases, uncontested probate can be completed with one court hearing and minimal ongoing court involvement.

Our goal is to make the process efficient and predictable, so you can focus on your family — not paperwork and court procedures.

Probate Without a Will (Intestate Probate in Texas)

If there is no will, the process becomes more complex — but it is still manageable with the right guidance.

We help clients with:

  • Determination of heirship proceedings

  • Appointment of an administrator

  • Identifying legal heirs under Texas law

  • Navigating court-required procedures

  • Transferring property to rightful heirs

Texas has specific rules that determine who inherits when there is no will. We guide you through this process step-by-step so you understand what to expect and avoid unnecessary delays.
