Let's work together to get your PLANNING all cleaned up and neatly organized TODAY
So, you can PLAY TOMORROW!
Spring can be magic and make even the most mundane task feel more exciting.
Life Planning is for EVERYONE!
Make sure you have everything planned and locked down. Then you can rest assured knowing that your affairs will be handled exactly as you intend them to be.
Relying on the statue to distribute your estate is fraught with danger. I have heard from too many clients, "Well, we just assumed that everything would go to the surviving spouse." When in fact there are a few tricky corners in the Texas descent and distribution statute that get applied daily, yet no one seems to have any idea that these provisions existed. Until that very moment of clarity where they find themselves looking at a property division that looks wholly different then they thought.
If you think you understand how property gets distributed without a will and you are resting solely on your assumptions, let a Christiansen PLLC attorney discuss the Texas Statute and see how things would pass under your unique set of facts. It is better to know now, while you have complete control of how things can be handled, then "on the other side" where it is really too late and costly to try and fix.
If you are ready to get started on this journey, schedule your complimentary consultation today!
Let us help you navigate through the Estates Code and Property Code with ease.
We will help you have the last word.
