Fort Worth Estate Planning Attorney
Estate planning isn’t just for retirees or the wealthy. Whether you’re a young family with kids, a homeowner, or simply someone who wants control over their legacy, having a plan in place is essential. At Texas Estate Plans, we guide individuals and families in Fort Worth through the process of building tailored legal plans that reflect their values, secure their assets, and provide peace of mind. You can choose between our convenient virtual planning experience—ideal for busy schedules and remote access—or our premium White-Glove Planning option, which includes in-person or virtual meetings, attorney-supervised signing, notary and witnesses, and a beautifully organized estate planning binder. We offer flexible solutions to fit your lifestyle, while always providing expert legal support every step of the way.
Estate planning covers all your possessions.
Your estate planning strategy addresses the full spectrum of everything you own, which encompasses:
- Real property and land holdings
- Automobiles and recreational vehicles
- Banking and investment accounts
- Employer-sponsored retirement benefits
- Life insurance policies
- Treasured personal items and collectibles
The goal is to identify reliable people in your life and create the proper legal framework (including wills and trust documents) that grants them authority to oversee your personal and financial matters, plus make critical healthcare decisions when you cannot.

Child Guardian Planning
As a parent, your greatest concern is ensuring your children will be protected and cared for, even when you can’t be there. When life takes an unexpected turn, having a comprehensive Child Guardian Plan means your children’s future remains bright and secure, guided by the people you trust most. Through Texas Estate Plans’ Child Guardian Planning services in Fort Worth, you can establish clear directives for your children’s care, designate trusted guardians who share your values, and create a protective Children’s Trust that preserves their inheritance. This thoughtful planning ensures your children will continue to thrive under the guidance of people you’ve personally chosen.
Consider this reality: if an unforeseen tragedy struck you and your spouse tomorrow, who would step in to raise your children? While it’s not easy to contemplate such possibilities, establishing a thoughtful Child Guardian Plan today provides the security and clarity your family needs during what would already be an incredibly difficult time.
At Texas Estate Plans, our approach to estate planning offers a framework for creating a strong Child Guardian Plan. Here is what our Child Guardian Plan covers:
- Guardian Selection: Carefully choose a guardian who shares your values, parenting style, and whom you trust totally to care for your children.
- Backup Guardians: Have alternate guardians lined up in case your first choice is unable to fulfill the role.
- Short term guardians: Plan for short-term guardianship arrangements if the permanent guardians cannot immediately take on the role.
- Emergency Contact List: Maintain an updated list of emergency contacts, including family members, friends, neighbors, healthcare providers, and others involved in your child’s life.
- Education and Healthcare: Outline your preferences for your child’s education and healthcare decisions, ensuring they receive the care and education you desire.
- Religious and Cultural Beliefs: If these are important to your family, include instructions on how you want your child to be raised by your beliefs.
- Financial Support: Specify how your child’s financial needs will be met, like setting up a Children’s Trust.
- Regular Review: Keep your plan up to date as circumstances change, ensuring it reflects your current wishes and circumstances.
Having a Child Guardian Plan is not just about legalities; it’s about peace of mind and ensuring your children are cared for by the right people in the event of your absence. It’s a gift of security and love that every parent deserves.
