While "child's portion" is not a legal term of art in Texas, Texas law does recognize that children will receive a certain portion of the assets of the estate; however, the specific amount of the portion owed depends on a long list of factors that will vary greatly from situation to situation. You should consult with an attorney who handles Texas Wills for more information.
