At Guerra Days, we provide full-service legal representation in all areas of probate law. Probate can be a challenging and emotional process, involving the distribution of a loved one’s estate, resolving disputes, or addressing claims of fraud or forgery. Our experienced attorneys offer compassionate guidance and strategic legal solutions to ensure your rights are protected and the probate process is handled efficiently.

Probate law in Texas encompasses a wide range of legal matters, starting with estate administration. When someone passes away, their estate must go through probate to ensure debts are settled and assets are distributed according to their will or state law if no will exists. This process can be overwhelming for executors and beneficiaries, as it often involves complex legal and financial steps. We help our clients navigate this process, ensuring compliance with Texas probate laws and reducing the stress associated with administering an estate.

Planning ahead is critical to avoid future probate complications, which is why estate planning is another cornerstone of our practice. A well-crafted estate plan protects your assets, minimizes taxes, and ensures your wishes are honored. From drafting wills and trusts to preparing powers of attorney and advance directives, we provide customized solutions to safeguard your legacy. For property owners, we also assist with transfer-on-death deeds, an estate planning tool that allows real estate to pass directly to a named beneficiary, avoiding the delays and costs of probate court.

Disputes are, unfortunately, a common aspect of probate. Will contests, for example, often arise when beneficiaries or heirs believe a will was executed under undue influence, fraud, or improper legal procedures. These disputes can be emotionally charged and legally complex, requiring experienced representation to protect your interests. Our attorneys are skilled in handling contested wills, ensuring that every aspect of the claim is thoroughly examined, whether it involves allegations of undue influence, questions of the testator’s capacity, or procedural errors.

Fraud and forgery can also play a significant role in probate matters, jeopardizing the integrity of an estate. Falsified documents, forged wills, or fraudulent claims can create chaos for rightful heirs and beneficiaries. We have extensive experience investigating and litigating fraud-related issues, including title irregularities and falsified signatures. By acting swiftly, we help our clients secure their rightful inheritance and protect the estate from further damage.

While probate often focuses on resolving disputes or administering estates, the process also includes proactive legal strategies to prevent future conflicts. This is where tools like transfer-on-death deeds come into play. These deeds allow property to pass directly to beneficiaries without the need for probate, making the process simpler and less costly. However, they must be executed properly to avoid legal challenges. We ensure these documents are prepared in full compliance with Texas law, providing peace of mind for property owners and their families.
