To Will Or Not To Will

To Will Or Not To Will" has been prepared to inform the public of what happens legally to the property of a person when he or she dies with a will or without a will. The Texas Young Lawyers Association seeks to make Texas residents aware of how the law (the Texas Probate Code) affects them and their families. This handbook is not a substitute for the advice of a lawyer, but instead is designed to assist Texans in learning about their legal rights.

Probate Transfers Legal Title Of Property
Probate is the means by which legal title of property transfers from the estate of the person who has died, to his or her proper beneficiaries. The term "probate" refers to proving the existence of a valid Will, or determining and proving who one's legal beneficiaries are if there is no Will. Since you can't take it with you, probate is the process used to determine who gets your property.
