Estate Planning

Learn about estate planning options from our attorneys that are based on your specific needs.

Without a clear estate plan, Texas law—not you—decides how your property is distributed, who manages your affairs, and who makes critical decisions on your behalf. Poor or outdated planning can lead to unnecessary taxes, family disputes, and costly court involvement.

Estate planning is not just for the wealthy. A thoughtful plan protects your assets, your loved ones, and your wishes—during your lifetime and after.

Working with an experienced estate planning attorney helps ensure your plan reflects your goals and complies with Texas law. At Seidel Tabakman Family Law, we take the time to understand your family, finances, and priorities and assist with planning tools such as:

  • Wills and testamentary documents
  • Revocable and irrevocable trusts
  • Powers of attorney (financial and medical)
  • Advance directives and “living wills”
  • Guardianship planning for minor children

We carefully review your situation to help minimize probate issues, protect beneficiaries, and provide clarity for those you leave behind.

In some cases, proper estate planning can reduce or avoid probate altogether, saving your family time, expense, and stress. Strategic use of trusts and beneficiary designations can also help prevent disputes and ensure your intentions are carried out as intended.

If you already have an estate plan, we can review and update it to reflect life changes such as marriage, divorce, new children, or changes in assets.

Estate planning is about peace of mind—for you and your family. Act now to protect what matters most and ensure your wishes are honored. To learn more, email us or call us at 214-528-3344 (Dallas), 817-230-4442 (Ft. Worth), or 972-312-1212 (Plano).
