With the largest population in the State of Texas, the City of Houston has many probate cases everyday. Our team of probate attorneys in Houston are committed to handling cases and guide clients through the intricacies of the Harris County Probate Court system.

Houston probates will be within one of four statutory probate courts:

The judges for all four probate courts have agreed to the Harris County Local Court Rules, but each judge has their own manner hearing cases and operating their court. What works in one court in Harris County may very well not work in another court in Harris County.
