Would you like to make an impact on the San Antonio community in a short time frame? When we as a legal community think of high-impact pro bono activities, very rarely does probate come to mind, but COVID-19 has impacted families and caused many tragic and unexpected deaths. It shined a light on the critical need pro se applicants have for probate assistance. People who are unable to afford a probate attorney are turning to the only pro se probate option available: a small estate affidavit (SEA). SEAs are problematic for many pro se applicants because either they do not understand how to properly complete the forms, or the estate doesn’t qualify for a SEA. In the Small Estate Clinic, volunteers meet with the client to review their small estate affidavits, make edits, or discuss alternative probate paths that are best suited for the client.
