When Should Your Family Plan?
Certain life events should trigger a review of your estate plan—or prompt you to create one if you haven't already:
Common Questions
Family Estate Planning FAQs
Q:Why does my family need estate planning?
A:Estate planning ensures your wishes are followed, your children are protected, and your assets go to the right people. Without a plan, Texas law decides who gets your assets and who cares for your children—which may not align with your wishes.
Q:At what age should we start estate planning?
A:Every adult should have basic estate planning documents. If you have children, own property, or have any assets, you need a plan now. Life is unpredictable, and having documents in place provides peace of mind and protection.
Q:What happens to our children if something happens to us?
A:Without a will naming guardians, a court will decide who raises your children. We help you document your wishes for guardianship and create plans to provide financially for your children through trusts.
Q:What's the difference between a will and a trust?
A:A will goes through probate court after death and becomes public record. A properly funded trust avoids probate for the assets transferred into it, maintains privacy, can provide for incapacity, and offers more control over how and when assets are distributed to beneficiaries.
Q:How do we protect assets for our children?
A:Trusts allow you to control when and how children receive their inheritance. You can set age requirements, conditions, or have a trustee manage assets until children are mature enough to handle them responsibly.
Q:What if we have a family member with special needs?
A:Special needs trusts allow you to provide for a disabled family member without jeopardizing their government benefits. These trusts require careful planning to ensure continued eligibility for programs like Medicaid and SSI.
Q:How often should we update our estate plan?
A:Review your plan every 3-5 years or after major life events: marriage, divorce, births, deaths, significant asset changes, or moving to a new state. Regular reviews ensure your plan still reflects your wishes.
Q:What documents do we need at minimum?
A:At minimum, every adult needs: a will, durable power of attorney for finances, medical power of attorney, and HIPAA authorization. Parents should also have guardian designations. Many families benefit from adding a revocable living trust.
