Last Will & Testament (Wills)

Wills define how your assets are distributed after your death. It allows you to leave your assets to whoever you wish. You can leave your belongings to friends, family, or charitable causes you care about. Most importantly, Wills can assign a guardian to your children. It can also set up a Trust to provide for their care in the future.

Without a Will, your assets will be distributed however Texas law says they should be. The guardianship of your children will be determined by a judge. Often, your wishes are different from what the law or a judge will determine. To prevent this, it is necessary to document your wishes in a Will. If you live in Texas, be sure that you have a Texas Will which conforms with all the state laws.

Medical Power of Attorney

This lets YOU decide in advance who should make medical decisions if you can't make them for yourself. This is important because you get to pick who makes those decisions, instead of leaving it up to a doctor or a judge. It also allows for faster medical decisions in an emergency.

Durable Power of Attorney

If you are ever mentally unable to make decisions for yourself, you'll need a Durable Power of Attorney. This gives a specific person, or group of people, the ability to make non-healthcare decisions for you. It's important that someone you trust will be making decisions for you. It's also important to prevent disputes among your loved ones.

Living Wills

Living Wills tell doctors whether or not you want to be put on life support if you have a terminal condition and cannot tell them yourself. You may want to provide a copy of your Living Will to your doctor.

When Should You Update It?

It is important to keep your Wills and other documents up to date. You may need to update them following births, deaths, marriages, divorce, or other events that will occur in your life.
