Firm Overview
Pyke and Associates offer representation in the fields of probate law, guardianship, and lien work. Pyke and Associates' lawyers have practiced in the fields of probate law, lien work, and guardianship for over twenty years. Over the years, Pyke and Associates have completed hundreds of estate and cases in these fields, giving each new client the benefit of the experience and knowledge acquired from previous cases.

Probate Law
Probate law is the process of the legal distribution of a deceased person’s property and estate according to their legal will and personal wishes. Most individuals will experience a need for probate services; and most often, at very stressful points in their lives. The importance of a skilled and knowledgeable probate lawyer cannot be understated. Many Dallas competitors to Pyke and Associates are capable attorneys, but have very little probate experience. This can lead to mistakes that may be costly for clients. Mr. Pyke has the advantage of practicing in the probate courts on a daily basis with court appearances virtually every week. This experience allows the firm to provide quick, efficient, and above all, accurate, handling of estates. This increased speed and efficiency carries over to clients in cost savings, making Mr. Pyke one of the most competitive probate attorneys in the greater Dallas area.

Guardianships
Guardianship cases are classified into two categories; guardianship of the person and guardianship of the estate. Most of the time, guardianship of both is required. The most common types of guardianships are when elderly persons lose capacity and a guardian needs to be appointed to make health care and financial decisions for them leading to the appointment of a guardian of the person and guardian of the estate. One person can be appointed to both positions. Also, guardianship of the estates are created when minors receive gifts or inheritance because neither the minor or parents are legally able to handle those funds without a guardianship. Guardianship cases make up another large portion of cases with which Mr. Pyke is very experienced. This experience leads to the correct and accurate filing of each case. This attention to detail is one more area where Pyke and Associates stand out from the competition.

Lien Work
Most lien cases revolve around contract issues and the prevention of payment disputes. In many cases, subcontractors pursue liens to protect against payment fraud and non payment. This protects the subcontractor’s business and reputation. A lien is a powerful weapon to enforce payment to the subcontractor. Money spent on contract liens is money well spent, especially with larger projects. Pyke and Associates file liens efficiently and quickly, which allows contractors the freedom to start working right away. Pyke and Associates also offers their knowledge and experience to subcontractors who may be unsure of the best way to create a lien. Lien law can be tricky, so if subcontractors do it on their own, they usually totally lose their lien rights.
