"Fraud in the Factum" occurs when a testator is misled as to the nature or content of the instrument being executed. A mistake of fact or law must be accompanied by evidence of fraud or undue influence to defeat the will’s admission to probate.

Tell me what happened
Write to me through the contact form: what happened, roughly when, and who is involved. I read these myself. Writing means our first conversation can be about your situation instead of getting me up to speed.
This page is general information about Texas law. It is not legal advice about your situation, and reading it does not create an attorney–client relationship. These matters turn heavily on specific facts and specific dates, and the law has exceptions this page does not cover. You should not take, or refrain from taking, any action based on this page. Discuss your circumstances with an attorney who can advise you on them.
