Frequently, families need to use the Probate Courts. Probate Courts administer cases that fall under the Estates and Protected Individuals Code. Some issues that the Probate Courts have exclusive jurisdiction over include the administration over decedent's estates both with and without legally executed wills; and limited and full guardianships and conservatorships over minors, mentally incapacitated individuals, and developmentally disabled individuals.
We offer individualized counsel for all probate and estate planning needs with a commitment to personal service and clear, consistent communication with our clients to ensure that informed decisions are made in the client's best interest.
