Determination of Heirship
A determination of heirship in Texas is a court proceeding where the court determines who the deceased’s rightful heir/s are and which heir/s will receive the deceased’s real and/or personal property.
This proceeding happens when a person passes away without a Last Will and Testament in Texas.

A Will Contest is a type of probate litigation that refers to the legal process of challenging the validity of a Will. This is typically done by individuals who have an interest in the deceased’s estate.
