What happens when one person named in a will passes away & the spouse takes property given to 4 other people in the will?

Eric James Smith
Answered by attorney Eric James Smith (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of Eric J. Smith
For a will to have effect on real property ownership in Texas, the will must be presented to a Texas probate court and probated in some fashion. No one is required to probate a will. If you have an original will to probate, you can offer it within 4 years of the death of your grandfather. After 4 years it might be admitted as a muniment of title, but formal administration is not an option. If your mother was your grandfather's only heir (heirs are determined by law , beneficiaries are designated in a will) and no will was presented for probate, full title of the property would pass to your mother. Your mother's interest in the property could have transfered in full to your father at her death. If you and your siblings want to sell the property, I'd make sure you have some ownership in it first.

Hello im trying to open an account an deposit my deceased sons check im the representative for his estate its less than6,000 do i have to settle in pr

Answered by attorney Terry Lynn Garrett
Estate Planning lawyer at The Garrett Law Firm, PLLC
If that is all your son left, you may not need to go to court but you will need to file a Small Estate Affidavit, wait for the judge's signature and find a bank which will accept it.  In any event, we have had independent administrations in Texas since 1843.  Probate here is neither as expensive nor as time consuming as you may imagine.

How do turn over our share of land to our brother?

Answered by attorney Christine James
Estate Planning lawyer at James Law Group
Speak directly with an attorney. You will either have to go through probate or a summary probate to transfer the land and a probate attorney can help you do that.
