Although Texas intestacy laws would normally apply, the children can agree (if ALL agree) to split the land and other property any way they choose. Also, because there was an auto accident, the proceeds from the auto accident would need to be addressed as well. Feel free to call me to discuss this ordeal in detail. I don't charge for telephone consultations.
