Hidalgo County Probate Attorney Information & Services

Hidalgo County probate attorneys can provide valuable assistance to clients in some of the most difficult times — after the death of a loved one. Probate attorneys are legal professionals who make sure the deceased’s assets go to the right places. Immediately after a person dies in Hidalgo County, their assets and any liabilities they have, are compiled into an estate.

If a person dies without a Will, distribution of their assets can be tricky if multiple people make claims for them. If a person believes he or she should be receiving certain assets, a Hidalgo County probate attorney will fight for their client’s rights in Texas probate court. In situations where there is no Will, probate courts rely on probate attorneys and intestacy laws to ascertain how the decedent’s assets should be apportioned.

  • Tracking down all of the assets people own and placing a value on them.

A wide range of legal problems can arise in business transactions and fiduciary relationships. While the types of disputes can vary, one element remains the same – having an attorney who can untangle the legal mess is vital to a successful outcome.

Most commercial and fiduciary litigation is resolved before the issue reaches a trial so having an attorney who is skilled at the negotiation table as well as in a courtroom is vital. From breach of business contract to breach of fiduciary duty by a trustee, our firm will dedicate the time and resources needed to see you through your legal issues.

Estate planning involves using legal methods to ensure that your assets and property are passed on according to your wishes. It involves wills, trusts, and other legal instruments to accomplish that task and to make other arrangements, such as the type of medical care you wish to receive or not receive should you become incapacitated. Where disputes occur trust administration can lead to negotiation and litigation over various issues from breach of fiduciary duty to removing a trustee and more. Our firm is thoroughly versed in all of the issues that can arise and taking the appropriate legal measures to fully resolve them.
