Why Estate Planning Matters

Even modest estates deserve protection. Without a valid estate plan, Texas law determines how your assets are distributed often in ways that don’t match your wishes. A proper estate plan ensures that your property, finances, and loved ones are protected in the event of death, incapacity, or unexpected life changes.

With a well-crafted plan, you can:

  • Ensure your assets go to the people you choose (not by default law)

  • Provide for minor children, dependents, or loved ones with special needs

  • Avoid unnecessary delays, court fees, and financial burden for heirs

  • Choose who makes financial and medical decisions if you become incapacitated

  • Preserve privacy, protect inheritances, and safeguard your family’s future

Our Services

We provide a full suite of estate planning and probate services, tailored to your needs:

Wills & Last Will and Testament

A Will declares how you want your property distributed, names executors or guardians, and helps avoid confusion and disputes. We draft clear, legally valid Wills designed for Texas law.

Trusts & Living Trusts

Trusts offer privacy, avoid probate, and can protect assets for children or dependents. We help you create Revocable Trusts, Irrevocable Trusts, and customized trusts (e.g. for minors or special needs).

Powers of Attorney & Advance Healthcare Directives

Planning for incapacity is vital. We prepare Durable Powers of Attorney (financial), Medical Powers of Attorney, Living Wills, and Advance Directives so your medical and financial wishes are respected if you cannot speak for yourself.

Special Needs Trusts & Beneficiary Planning

If you have a loved one with special needs, a Specialized Trust can protect inheritance without jeopardizing government benefits. We design and draft trust documents specifically for this purpose.
