The city of Carrollton is part of the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex, and is located north of Dallas. Its jurisdiction places parts of the city within Dallas County, Collin County, and Denton County.
It is of utmost importance to start the probate process in the correct jurisdiction. Probates filed in the incorrect court will very likely be thrown out even after going through all the steps, which is further complicated due to each court in Texas having its own set of probate proceedings and conditions.
However, our team of probate attorneys in Carrollton are committed to handling cases and guide clients, including the intricacies of the different county probate court systems.
The probate process takes place in the county that the decedent resided. Because of this, Carrollton probate cases may be held in three different counties.
Probate cases in Collin County are held within the Collin County Probate Court. The information for their probate court can be found below:
While the judge for this probate court has agreed to the Collin County Local Court Rules, each judge has their own manner of operating their court and for hearing cases. What works for one statutory probate court in Texas, might not work in a statutory probate court in Collin County.
Probate cases in Dallas County are held within the Dallas County Probate Court. The information for Dallas County can be found below:
The judges for all three probate courts have agreed to the Dallas County Local Court Rules, but each judge has their own manner of hearing cases and operating their court. What works in one statutory probate court in Dallas County may very well not work in another statutory probate court in Dallas County.
Probate cases in Denton County are held at the Denton County Probate Court. The information for their probate court can be found below:
While the judges for these probate court have agreed to the Denton Local Court Rules, each judge has their own manner of operating their court and hearing cases. What works for one statutory probate court in Texas, might not work in a statutory probate court in Denton County.
