Probate and Guardianship

Probate. Probate is the court process to settle a deceased person’s estate. This process includes handling debts and transferring assets to beneficiaries. Families often may not realize an estate needs to be probated, or what type of probate may be appropriate. There are many different probate procedures available in Texas.

​

Guardianship. Guardianship is a court proceeding where an adult person is found to be incapacitated and a court appoints a legal guardian to make decisions for that person. The Toups Law Firm is here to be your guide through any court process. All of our attorneys have obtained the special certification required to practice guardianship law in Texas.
