Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Texas

The answer depends on a few things:

1. How did mother acquire title?

2. Was she married?

3. Was there a will?

4. Are there other children?

5. DId mother have any debts?

6. Did she own the house with anyone else?

If there's a will, then you'll likely need to probate it. If not, then you'll need to clear title using either an application to probate, heirship affidavit, or a small estate affidavit. The answer depends on the questions above.

Feel free to call or email me to discuss.
