Texas Probate:

Probating is the legal process of transferring property and estates following a person's death. It give you the letters of testamentary or letters of administration you need. It also helps you transfer title on real property. Probating customs and laws have changed over time, the purpose of probating has remained much the same: an individual formalizes their intentions as to the transfer of their property at the time of their death (typically through a Will), their property is collected, certain debts are paid from the estate and the property is distributed accordingly.
