What Is the Success Rate of Contesting a Will in Texas? | RMO Lawyers

RMO Lawyers October 23, 2024 10:23 am

In Texas, intestate succession laws apply when someone dies without a valid will. The estate is distributed according to state law, prioritizing the surviving spouse and children. If there are no children, the estate may go to the deceased's parents, siblings, or other relatives.

Testate succession occurs when someone dies with a valid will. The will dictates how the estate is distributed, and the probate court oversees the process to ensure the deceased's wishes are followed. The executor named in the will is responsible for managing the estate and distributing assets according to the will's instructions.

If there is a trust in place, the assets held in the trust are managed and distributed according to the terms of the trust document, bypassing the probate process entirely in many cases.
