San Antonio Estate Planning Attorneys
Most people don’t realize that whether you have executed planning documents, you have a plan in place. The State of Texas will determine, by statute, what happens to your estate if you do not decide for yourself in advance. This applies not only to your will but to decision making authority in the event of incapacity as well. Having a plan in place that reflects what you want for yourself, and your estate will replace the statute and ensure that your wishes are carried out.
Planning ahead of time also allows you to be in control.
