Estate Planning and Probate

The deceased’s original will could not be located. Neither could a copy of the signed will. We filed an application for probate of a lost will and were able to prove the will had been executed and its contents. This allowed the executor to carry out the deceased’s wishes and avoided the estate passing under the intestacy laws of the state of Texas.
