Brother Passed With No Will In Texas

Location: Texas. We are in Texas, my brother passed away without a will. He was never married, and had no children. We filed for probate, and during the probate process, his girlfriend has filed to contest the probate process. She says they were common law married. My brother and her started living together in 2022. On his Facebook he always called her his girlfriend. When he was sick and in the hospital, the hospital would not allow her to make any decisions for him, and called me for health decisions. They never filed taxes together, and from my understanding she was put on his checking account as an authorized signer, just so household bulls could be paid, while he was sick. He had a 401k that, I had no clue about, until she called me and told me about it and said, "since me and your brother were not married, I'd hate for this 401k just to go to the state, you and your sister deserve this." Anyways, what do yall think will be the outcome of the contest? What can we expect in legal fees, and time now?
