55%
Probate 35%

When someone dies, that person has left behind an estate, which is the legal term for everything that person owned. An estate can be as little as a person's clothes or can also include substantial assets, like real estate, investments, cars, boats and so on. Some estates are very small and "handling the estate" may not require any legal action. Any property with a written title, like a house or a car, will require action in probate court.

Divorce and separation lawyer | Jan 11

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Penny has been an incredible help to me in my practice, and is always available to answer any questions I may have. She has a broad set of skills and is an excellent attorney, but even more importantly is a lawyer with integrity and commitment to service. Her military background gives her the ability to talk to people from all walks of life, and she continues her service by coordinating a legal clinic for veterans in Collin County. I cannot recommend her enough."
