Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Texas

Probate and Will

I am the son to one of the heirs in the will and my father has put in his will for his property to be given to us. The original executor died recently and we got the original will and probate papers. We have been paying land taxes on this land for over 20 years on the original 15.2 acres instead of only our share which was 5.2 acres and we want to know what we can do to get this out of probate and the land into the original heirs in order to have it put into our name. Do we have to go to court to get this done? We have spoke with the heirs and my father and the wife to the executor are willing to give us their share leaving 5.2 acres to the other surviving daughter. Any advice as to what we should do would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Probate and Will

I'm not sure I follow all this. Your best bet is to make an appointment and go talk to a good probate attorney in the county where the probate was filed.
