The Texas probate rules say that venue for a probate matter is in the county in which the decedent resided. This is found in Section 33.001 of the Texas Estates Code (this article provides a more in-depth review of probate court venue). The courts have concluded that the term “resided” means “domicile” under Texas law.

Texas Probate Timeline If the estate is small or simple, the probate court can often conclude the process within six months. However, there are many cases where probate can last for a year or longer. This is especially true where the original will is contested or is missing.
The will is also to be filed with the County Clerk's Probate Office located in room B90 at 100 W. Weatherford St., Fort Worth, Texas. Please be sure to provide the assigned case number when you file the will.
