Will Decision Tree

Did your loved one die in Texas? You need an attorney where the loved one resided at the time of will. Declaration of heirship (see different flowchart) Did they have a will? Are there debts to be paid from assets? Explore alternate procedures. Is there just one item of real estate? Are there assets of which you don't have control? Did descendent live in the DFW Metroplex? Hire an attorney in the county where the descendent resided. Discuss possibility of an affidavit of heirship. You probably don't need probate. Hire Pyke & Associates to help you.
