Best Estate Planning Attorneys in Spring, TX

Are Probate Courts Open in Harris County, TX? I currently hear many people say how they do not know if our probate courts are open or not. They are OPEN. All hearings are being conducted using Zoom videoconference. This has been a good thing for proving up Wills in Court when there are issues with how the Will was signed. For instance, sometimes we need testimony from someone else to prove that the handwriting or signature on the Will is that of the deceased. And, if those live witnesses were from out of town, that generally involved a trip to Houston probate court for the hearing with the probate judge. Now, since we are doing the hearings on videoconference software, my clients and all witnesses can be anywhere where they have a good internet connection for videoconferencing. The good news is that you can still take care of your probate case, and, despite COVID-19, it is actually easier than ever to get your case done. We are familiar with all the ins-and-outs of our probate courts procedural rules for conducting probate hearings. We have a large conference room equipped with all the cameras and software needed for the hearing. So, if you do not want to figure out the video software, you can come sit with the attorney for the hearing. Probate is required in many circumstances in order to clear up the title to real estate, vehicles, and bank accounts.
