It's never too early to create an estate plan. Whether you're a young parent wanting to protect your children, a professional building wealth, or approaching retirement, having a plan in place ensures your wishes are honored and your loved ones are protected. Life's unexpected events don't wait, so planning today gives you peace of mind for tomorrow.
A will is a legal document that directs how your assets should be distributed after you pass away and goes through probate court. A trust is both an "above ground" and "below ground" document—it can hold and manage assets during your lifetime and distribute them after death, often avoiding probate. Trusts also provide protection if you become incapacitated, allowing a successor trustee to manage your affairs. We'll help you determine which option best fits your needs.
Guardianship is a court-ordered arrangement where someone is appointed to care for a person (guardian of the person) and/or manage their finances (guardian of the estate) when they can no longer do so themselves. This can apply to aging parents losing capacity or minor children if both parents pass away. We guide families through the guardianship process with compassion and help you take proactive steps to appoint guardians in advance when possible.
Medicaid planning helps you qualify for Medicaid benefits to cover long-term care costs while protecting your assets. The qualification process is complex with specific income and asset rules. Our attorneys understand Texas Medicaid requirements and can help you prepare the necessary documents, determine your eligibility, and create strategies to preserve your estate while ensuring you receive the care you need.
Essential advance care planning documents include a Medical Power of Attorney (designating someone to make healthcare decisions if you can't), a Directive to Physicians (living will), and a Durable Power of Attorney for financial matters. We also work with clients on "Five Wishes" documents and Texas MOST forms. These documents ensure your wishes are known and your trusted representatives can act on your behalf during medical or financial emergencies.
