Probate is Not Expensive.

Probate has been given a bad rap.  It does not have to be an arduous and expensive process.  In many cases, probate is not even necessary!  Did you know that filing for probate is usually a matter of filing an application, having a hearing for 15 minutes before a county judge, making an inventory sheet, and simply filing a motion to close?

When you hear about the process of most probate filings it doesn’t seem like a green-eyed monster anymore.  The judge will sign an order closing the estate which should take no more than 2-3 months.  Are you concerned about the tax implications?  Know this, there are no federal estate taxes on estates valued at less than 5 million dollars.  Most estates are not like Paisley Park.

Stop and take a breath and call a lawyer who has had decades of experience filing for probate in the state of Texas.  Pick up the phone and call Attorney Bill Cornett serving Amarillo and the Texas Panhandle at (806) 374-9498.  Bill is your choice as an experienced probate lawyer in the Texas Panhandle.  Don’t waste another minute.  Call him today.
