Beneficiary designations play a bigger role in your estate plan than many people realize. These selections can override what’s written in your will, which is why keeping them updated is so important.

If you’ve had a major life change—marriage, divorce, new baby, new job, or new account—now is a great time to double-check that your beneficiaries still match your wishes.

As a Prosper estate planning attorney, I help families make sure everything works together smoothly. If you’d like help reviewing or updating your beneficiary designations, my office is here to support you.

Many people are surprised to learn that a last will and testament and a living will do completely different things. Even though the names sound similar, each document protects a different part of your wishes, and both play an important role in a complete estate plan.

As an estate planning attorney here in Prosper, I help clients understand how these documents work together so their plans are clear, legally strong, and easy for loved ones to follow.

If you’re unsure which documents you need or it’s been a while since you reviewed your estate plan, I’m here to help. Reach out anytime with your questions.

Americans are living longer, and that reality is reshaping how we think about long-term planning. Recent data shows life expectancy in the U.S. has risen to nearly 79 years, continuing its rebound after the COVID‑19 pandemic.

With longer lifespans come longer retirements, extended care needs, and more complex estate planning decisions. Our team encourages families to take a fresh look at whether their wills, trusts, and powers of attorney still reflect their needs.

If it has been a while since your last review—or if your plan no longer fits your life—now is a great time to revisit it. We’re here to help you plan with clarity and confidence across every stage of life.

Estate planning conversations can be some of the most meaningful moments a family shares—and some of the most intimidating to start. I get it. Talking about the future isn’t always comfortable, but avoiding these discussions can come with real consequences.

Here are a few practical tips to help you approach these conversations with clarity and confidence:
• Choose a calm moment when no one feels rushed
• Focus on your goals and values, not just documents
• Keep the conversation simple and build from there

If you’re unsure where to begin or want a professional to walk you through your options, I’m here to help. Reach out anytime to review your current estate plan or start putting one in place that truly protects your family.

August is National Make a Will Month, making it a great time to revisit one of the most important parts of your estate plan.

A will gives clear legal direction so your wishes are honored later on. Without one, the state may make those decisions for you — and they may not align with what you would have wanted.

To help you feel more confident and informed, I’m sharing answers to a few of the most common questions I hear as an estate planning attorney here in Prosper. Swipe through to learn more.

If you’d like to review your current will or see how it fits into your overall estate plan, I’m always here to help you talk through your options and identify any updates worth considering.

Understanding how your assets transfer after death is a key part of estate planning, but it's also one of the most misunderstood areas. Some assets pass automatically through beneficiary designations, while others require action by an executor. Knowing the difference can help you avoid surprises and keep your plan aligned with your wishes.

If you're unsure how your assets are set to transfer or want an estate plan review in Texas, I'm here to help. Call my office to get started.
