Joseph S. Yardas Jr.

I am an Attorney at Law and Certified Public Accountant, dedicated to assisting clients with probate and estate matters in Montgomery County, Harris County, and the surrounding areas. With over 25 years of legal experience, coupled with decades of work in business, insurance, and finance, I approach each case with a unique blend of legal acumen and financial understanding. I earned my B.B.A., with honors, from the University of Texas at Austin and my J.D., cum laude, from the University of Houston Law Center in 1999. Licensed to practice law in Texas since 2000, I focus on guiding families, executors, and beneficiaries through probate with practical advice, clear communication, and a commitment to efficiency while minimizing unnecessary complications. While my primary focus is on probate and estate matters, my background also encompasses work in bankruptcy, business, consumer, creditor-debtor, insurance, labor and employment, and commercial litigation cases. This broad experience proves especially useful when probate issues intersect with business disputes, debt concerns, insurance matters, or other contested situations, allowing me to address those related challenges when they arise. I have also had the opportunity to appear before the Supreme Court of Texas, where I succeeded in four out of five cases. As both an attorney and CPA, I am committed to providing steady guidance and practical solutions during what can often be challenging and financially intricate times.
