Estate administration involves collecting the estate assets of the decedent (person who died), paying any debts and taxes they owe, and distributing the remaining property to the beneficiaries, or heirs, of the estate.  This process is necessary whether the decedent died with a will (testate) or without a will (intestate).   Often, it is necessary to go through probate, which involves paperwork and at least one court appearance.  As daunting as this may sound, the probate process in Texas is typically fairly short and simple.
