Last Will and Testament- Katy, TX – Property Division When You Don’t Have a Will

Property Distribution in Katy, Texas, Harris or Fort Bend County, When You Don’t Have a Last Will and Testament

If you live in Katy, Texas, and Fort Bend or Harris County, and die without a Last Will and Testament the Probate Court handling the probate of the estate will divide your assets in the manner required by the Texas Probate Code. The requirements of the Texas Probate Code will most likely result in your property being distributed to individuals you would not have otherwise listed as beneficiaries had you taken the initiative to have a Last Will and Testament drafted for you by an experienced Katy Estate Planning Attorney. Often this type of distribution blog-detalis-img imposes financial hardship and emotional upset on those individuals and close family members you would have originally wanted to benefit the most. In essence, if you fail to have an experienced local Katy lawyer draft a Last Will and Testament on your behalf you might unintentionally give valuable property and assets to relatives and/or individuals who do not need it or who do not deserve it.
