Estate Planning
Declaration of Guardian for Estate and Person
This document allows you to appoint now, the individual (as well as alternates) who you would like to take care of your person (i.e. coordinate health care services, home health care, nursing home services) and your estate ( i.e. collect Social Security or paychecks, pay mortgages or health insurance premiums) if you are completely incapacitated. This document prevents your spouse or other individuals from having to petition the court to be appointed as your guardian and continue to make yearly reports to the court, which can cost substantial amounts of money for court costs, attorney fees, accountant fees and the like.
Declaration of Guardian for Minor Children
This document allows you to appoint now, the individual/s (as well as alternates) who you would like to have care for your minor children in the event of the death of your and your spouse. This issue is of vital importance and should be discussed with the parties involved to determine a plan for such an occurrence.
Our basic Estate Planning Package includes all of these documents. The package also includes the facilitated execution of all of the documents to Texas Standards. We provide all witnesses and notaries to insure proper execution. We will retain copies of your documents and provide you with your original documents. Please contact me for a consultation regarding your Estate Planning, so that we may determine which documents will best accomplish your goals.
