Booking the first conversation

Use the scheduling link below and pick a time that works. You will be asked what the dispute is about and who else is involved. Have the names right, including anyone who has already hired a lawyer, because conflicts get checked before anyone calls you back.

If you would rather talk first, the phone number is on this page. The person who answers will take down the basics and set up a time for you to talk with a lawyer.

What to have in front of you

  • The date of death, and whether anything has been filed yet.
  • A cause number if there is one. Cases here are filed with the District Clerk, so that is where a number comes from.
  • The will, if you have a copy, even a photograph of one.
  • The names of the other people with a stake in it, and which of them already has counsel.
  • Whatever you have been sent: a citation, a notice, an accounting, a letter from someone else’s lawyer.

Where these cases are heard

The Nueces County Courthouse is at 901 Leopard Street. The county courts at law sit there, and under the local administrative rules a setting is obtained from the Court Coordinator rather than by calling the judge.

  • County Court at Law No. 1, Room 701
  • County Court at Law No. 2, Room 702
  • County Court at Law No. 3, Room 703
  • County Court at Law No. 4, Room 704
  • County Court at Law No. 5, which sits separately on Gollihar Road and gives preference to family law and mental health matters

The District Clerk’s office is on the third floor of the same building, in Room 313.

The counties this office covers

Nueces, San Patricio, Kleberg, Aransas and Jim Wells. If the estate or the property is in another county, mention it when you call and we will tell you whether we can help.

Talk to a Corpus Christi probate lawyer

Bring whatever documents you have. A will, a letter from the executor or a recent account statement is enough to start.

The first conversation is short and free.
