Ten counties in Texas have established Statutory Probate Courts - Bexar, Collin, Dallas, Denton, El Paso, Galveston, Harris, Hidalgo, Tarrant, and Travis. Some of these counties have more than one Probate Court; there are 18 Statutory Probate Courts total in Texas. That does not mean that only 18 courts in the state hear probate cases! In counties without Probate Courts, probate matters (such as wills, estates, and guardianships) may be heard in District Courts, County Constitutional Courts and/or County Courts at Law. In some counties, a County Court at Law may be referred to as a "County and Probate Court," but unless it is in one of the counties listed above, it is not officially a Probate Court.
