Revocable Living Trust
For families who want to avoid probate entirely, keep their affairs private, or plan for more complex situations — a trust holds your assets and passes them to your loved ones without court.

Not everyone needs a trust — for many Texas families a will plus a transfer on death deed does the job. We’ll talk through whether a trust is right for you.
Need just one document, or not sure what fits? We’ll sort it out on a quick call. Revocable living trusts are available too — priced by consultation to fit your situation.

Questions?
Common Questions
Here are the things Texas families ask us most.
Are these documents valid in Texas?
Yes. Every document is prepared by a licensed Texas attorney and drafted to meet Texas law. You’ll sign before a notary and two witnesses to make it official.
What if something needs changing?
You get free revisions for 30 days, to make sure we get it right. After you review your documents, we’ll adjust anything that’s not quite right at no charge.
How long does it take?
Most orders are completed within one business day of our call. There’s no rush on your end — fill out the form whenever it’s convenient for you.
Do I need a trust?
For most Texas families, a will plus a transfer on death deed avoids probate without the cost of a trust. But for some situations a revocable living trust is the right tool — we prepare those too, and we’ll give you a straight answer on the call about whether it fits your needs.
