Heirship Probate Assistance
Houston Land Bank
Heirship-program pathway to possible probate initiation assistance through the Harris County Public Probate Administrator.
How to get help
Submit the Heirship Program intake form and have relevant documents ready, including the deed, death certificate if applicable, will if applicable, and recent tax statements. Houston Land Bank and its public partner determine what assistance may be available; submission does not create an attorney-client relationship or guarantee probate action or title clearance.
Who this service helps
Families with a deceased property owner and unresolved probate or ownership issues may submit an intake. The official page does not publish full legal eligibility, jurisdictional requirements, estate-value limits, representation terms, or case-acceptance standards.
