Herrin Law operates on a unique pricing model that prioritizes the client’s situation and potential outcomes over billable hours. The philosophy of most law firms is that they spend time on a file and deserve to be paid for that time, regardless of the results. Herrin Law, however, takes a different approach.
The firm is committed to providing the best legal experience possible, which requires exceptional customer service. This means having open and honest conversations with clients about what the firm can realistically achieve for them. If they believe they can’t put the client in a better position, then they don’t think it’s fair to charge fees.

Our Story
“Herrin Law, led by Daniel Herrin, is a beacon of hope for individuals and families navigating legal challenges. Born in Midland, Texas, Daniel Herrin’s journey to becoming a renowned lawyer started at the University of Oklahoma, culminating with a law degree from Texas Wesleyan (Now Texas A&M). After gaining invaluable experience and becoming a senior attorney at a law firm in Texas, Daniel took a leap of faith in 2012 to start his own firm. This venture evolved into Herrin Law in 2015.

What is Probate?
Probate is the legal process through which a deceased person's estate is administered and distributed. It ensures that the deceased's debts are paid, and the remaining assets are distributed to the rightful heirs or beneficiaries according to the will or state law if there is no will.
Steps in the Probate Process
1. Filing the Petition The probate process begins with filing a petition with the probate court to admit the will (if there is one) and appoint an executor or personal representative.
2. Notifying Heirs and Creditors All heirs and creditors must be notified of the probate proceedings. This step includes publishing a notice in the local newspaper to inform unknown creditors.
3. Inventory and Appraisal The executor is responsible for taking an inventory of the deceased's assets, including real estate, personal property, and financial accounts. An appraisal may be required to determine the value of certain assets.
4. Paying Debts and Taxes The deceased's debts and taxes must be paid before distributing the remaining assets. This includes funeral expenses, medical bills, and any outstanding loans.
5. Distribution of Assets Once all debts and taxes are settled, the remaining assets are distributed to the beneficiaries according to the will or state law.
6. Closing the Estate The final step is to close the estate. The executor must file a final accounting with the court, showing all income, expenses, and distributions. Once approved, the estate is officially closed.
