Why it matters
These are the four places families get surprised—usually when it’s too late to ‘fix it later.’
- Probate takes time—even when it’s “simple.”
- Beneficiary designations can override your documents.
- Unfunded trusts don’t work the way people think.
- Family conflict shows up at the worst time
The Starter Kit helps you spot these issues early.
FAQ
No. This Starter Kit is educational information to help you get organized and understand common probate-avoidance tools in Texas. For advice about your specific situation, you should talk with a qualified attorney.
Maybe, maybe not. Some families don’t. The Starter Kit helps you map your assets, spot probate-risk areas, and understand when a trust is worth exploring.
That’s common. The Starter Kit helps you review what you have, identify gaps, and make sure your accounts and beneficiary designations match your plan.
Most people can complete the Starter Kit in one sitting, then follow the “next 30 days” roadmap to prioritize what to do next.
It will help you identify red flags and the questions you need to ask. Those situations often require individualized legal guidance, so the Starter Kit is a starting point—not a substitute for counsel.
