Time limits for contesting a will

Posted on | May 24, 2009 | No Comments

If you are about to lose your inheritance because someone else is attempting to probate an unfair will,  how much time do you have to contest the will?

In Texas, the statute of limitations for contesting a will 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.

I have written articles about the time limits involved in contesting unfair wills here
