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.
In Texas, beneficiaries are entitled to receive a copy of the will as part of the probate process. This means anyone who is named in the will as an heir has a right to receive a copy of the will.
As stated, Texas law deems wills to be public records once admitted to probate court. This means that any member of the public can access and view the will by visiting the county clerk's office in the county where the will was probated.
