The courtrooms and addresses for the three Bexar County probate courts are listed first. Below that is what to expect when you call us about a contested estate and what to have ready.
Bexar County has three statutory probate courts, under Gov’t Code 25.0171(c). All three are at 100 Dolorosa in downtown San Antonio, in different rooms. Check the court number on your fiat or notice of hearing before you go.
1846 N. Loop 1604 W, Suite 205, San Antonio, TX 78248, by appointment only. The phone number is (210) 436-6601.
Please call or book a time before coming in. If you already have a hearing date, tell us when you call so we can review your file sooner.
Your first call goes to our intake staff. They will ask what the dispute is about, who is on the other side, which court the case is in or would be filed in, and whether you are facing a deadline. Those answers tell us who should handle your matter and how quickly.
The first consultation is short and free. Tell us the bad facts along with the good ones. The facts that hurt your position usually decide whether a case is worth filing.
The Bexar County probate courts hold remote hearings on Zoom. In Probate Court No. 1, the duty falls on the movant’s counsel, who sets up and hosts the Zoom hearing and must include the Zoom link in the fiat. If you are the one asking Court No. 1 for relief, setting up the hearing is your job.
Bexar County probate courts’ local rules, approved September 25, 2026, Rule 5.1(a).
Chapter 14 of the Bexar County probate courts’ local rules covers artificial intelligence. It does not prohibit using AI. Instead, the filing attorney or party stays independently responsible for the accuracy of everything filed, under TRCP 13 and Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code chapters 9 and 10.
A made-up citation or fact can draw sanctions against the person who signed the filing, no matter what tool produced the draft. The rule also tells you how closely these courts read what is filed with them.
We take contested work: will contests, removal of an executor or administrator, breach of fiduciary duty, contested heirship, dependent administration, inherited property and partition fights, contested guardianship and guardian removal, and trust litigation. We do not handle simple wills, estate planning, or uncontested administration.
Bexar, Bandera, Medina, Comal, Guadalupe, and Atascosa. Of those, only Bexar has statutory probate courts. In the other counties, probate is heard by the county court or a county court at law, and the Bexar local rules described above, including the Zoom and AI rules, do not apply.
If you have a hearing set in a Bexar County probate court, call us before the hearing date.
The first consultation is short and free.
