How long does a lawyer have to notify the heirs of a will details contained within the will?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Isaac David Shutt (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Shutt Law Firm, PLLC
The executor must give beneficiaries notice within 60 days of the probate of the Will. See Texas Probate Code 128A. However, the executor is not required to give this notice to a beneficiary who is to inherit less than $2,000 in property under the Will. Contact the county clerk in the appropriate county to see if the Will has been admitted to probate. If it has, and you are supposed to inherit $2,000 or more in property, then you should receive the required notice within 60 days.

Can I find out about my father's will if I don't have a copy?

Answered by attorney James Bloomfield Oberholtzer
Estate Planning lawyer at James Oberholtzer, Chartered
In almost every state, it is the law that a person with possession of a Will must file it with the local county court (where the decedent lived at the time of death) within 30 days of death. Check with the local court and if there is no will.

Can I find out about my father's will if I don't have a copy?

Answered by attorney David L. Leon
Estate Planning lawyer at David L. Leon, P.C.
If the will was probated, then it's a public record and you can obtain a copy by going to the courthouse (either in person or on the courthouse's website). If the will has not been probated, but you know who has the original will, you can petition the court to force the person who has the will to provide it to the county clerk. You can then file for probate yourself.
