Would you file for probate and where would it be held at
A:
I'm sorry for your loss. Whether you need a probate in TX will depend on TX law and whether you need a probate in OK will depend on OK law. In Oklahoma, your need for a probate will depend on numerous factors, including what types of assets your mom had, how those assets were titled, the value of those assets, etc. For more information, see the article titled "Do I Need Probate?" at the link below:

Also, many probate attorneys offer free consultations where they analyze your unique situation and provide more specific guidance.
