COMMON QUESTIONS
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need an attorney to prepare a will in Texas?
Texas law does not require you to hire an attorney to prepare a will. However, working with an experienced estate planning attorney can help ensure your will is properly prepared, reflects your wishes, and addresses issues involving property, beneficiaries, executors, and other estate-planning considerations.
When should I update my estate plan?
It is a good idea to review your estate plan after major life changes such as marriage, divorce, the birth of a child or grandchild, the death of a beneficiary, buying or selling significant property, starting a business, or experiencing a substantial change in finances. Periodic reviews can also help ensure your documents continue to reflect your current wishes.
What happens if someone dies without a will in Texas?
When someone dies without a valid will in Texas, their estate is generally distributed according to Texas intestacy laws. Who inherits can depend on factors such as whether the person was married, had children, and whether property was separate or community property. The probate process can also become more complicated, making legal guidance particularly valuable.
