How long do I have to contest a will
If you are about to lose your inheritance because someone else is attempting to probate an unfair will, it is critical that you immediately seek legal help.
Time Limits For Contesting A Texas Will
The time limits for contesting a Texas will -what the law refers to as the statute of limitations- is complicated. Since the time limits begin when the will is admitted to probate rather than when the *testator *dies, you cannot say that there is a two year period of limitations or a four year period of limitations. You need to get expert advice on your time limits.

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.
