Planning Today. Protecting Tomorrow.®
Lone Star Counsel works with families, business owners, landowners, and professionals in every part of Texas. Outside our five office regions, consultations take place by telephone or video, and we arrange signing, notarization, and recording steps for your county.
In many Texas counties, probate is handled by the constitutional county court or a county court at law, and contested matters may be transferred to another court. We explain how your county's process affects the plan.
In West Texas, the Permian Basin, and agricultural regions, mineral and royalty interests and farmland often pass through several generations. Clear records and a plan for each interest help avoid title problems later.
In El Paso, Laredo, and the Rio Grande Valley, families may have relatives or property in Mexico. We address the Texas and U.S. questions within our scope and coordinate with qualified counsel in the other country when needed.

Most consultations and planning meetings can take place by telephone or video. Some steps may still require in-person action: a Texas will is generally signed before two credible witnesses, many documents must be notarized, deeds are recorded with the county clerk where the property is located, and probate or guardianship matters may require hearings in the county where they are filed. We explain which steps your matter requires and how they can be arranged.
