Questions answered? Let's get started!
This form is typically used when the deceased did NOT leave a will or estate plan. The Affidavit of Heirship is a sworn statement used to establish the heirs of a property, with a goal of putting the property in their name. Sometimes this form is used to bypass probate when the deceased left a will that leaves the property solely to the direct descendants of the deceased or when 4 years have passed since the death of the owner, the general time frame to probate a will in Texas. An Affidavit of Heirship can be filed anytime. An Affidavit of Heirship alone does not transfer property title. It identifies the heirs of the property.
General parameters for a Texas Affidavit of Heirship document:
No valid will, or if beneficiaries and/or heirs agree to disregard the will.
Only real estate needs to be transferred to heirs.
The deceased does not have any debts.
No administration of estate required.

Poor communication. Confusing charges. (Waiting for explanation) overall, not thrilled and at this point would not recommend.
Sorry to hear of your confusion. We've gone ahead and canceled your order. We do hope that you find something more suitable to your needs elsewhere. Have a wonderful day.
