With a Texan Wills and Trusts Estate Plan:

You stay in control:

  • Decide exactly who will inherit your assets
  • Name someone you trust to make decisions if you’re incapacitated
  • Appoint guardians you choose to raise your minor children

Plus, you can:

  • Avoid probate and unnecessary court involvement
  • Gain peace of mind by eliminating uncertainty
  • Create your online will and trust on your schedule

Without an estate plan, a court makes these decisions for you.

How it works. The Process.

Optional Upgrade: Attorney Consultation

Want extra guidance and peace of mind you’re doing the right estate plan? You can start with an optional video consultation with a Texas-licensed attorney. During this call, you can discuss your family, goals, and any concerns to help ensure your plan fits your needs.

Step 1. Design Your Documents Online

Once you’re ready, you’ll use our secure online design system to create your personalized estate planning documents. Our step-by-step process makes it easy. No confusing legal jargon, and you stay in control of your choices the whole way.

Step 2. Get Documents Instantly

After you finish, we instantly email your completed documents directly to you. You can review them on your own time, then simply print and sign with a notary when you’re ready. It’s that easy.

With Texan, you can take care of your estate plan from the comfort of home.

* Texan Wills and Trusts isn’t a law firm, and that distinction is designed to benefit you.

We’re a tech-powered document-generation system designed to make high-quality, Texas-compliant estate planning more accessible and affordable than ever before. By automating routine drafting, our system generates customized wills, trusts, and related documents in minutes, eliminating in-person appointments and surprise fees while delivering professional-grade paperwork at a fraction of the traditional cost.

No online estate planning platform is a substitute for legal advice from an attorney, so we partner with BOOK LAW FIRM, a respected Texas-licensed law firm, to offer an optional upgrade for personalized attorney support. If you add this upgrade, you’ll engage directly with a BOOK LAW FIRM attorney at a transparent, pre-set consultation fee. This consultation is designed to answer your questions and provide guidance on how to design your estate plan. After receiving that guidance, you can use those instructions to draft your own documents.

By uniting the efficiency of our advanced document‐generation technology with the expertise of seasoned Texas attorneys, this hybrid model empowers you with unparalleled control and flexibility in crafting your estate plan.

What Is a Trust in an Online Will and Trust?

A trust is a legal arrangement that allows someone, known as the trustee, to manage assets for the benefit of others, called beneficiaries. In Texas, the most common type is the Revocable Living Trust. This type of trust can be created, changed, or even canceled during your lifetime.

In an online will and trust, the trust typically includes:

  • You as the trustee, managing your assets while you are alive and healthy
  • You as the primary beneficiary, receiving all benefits while you live
  • A successor trustee, someone you choose to take over if you become incapacitated or pass away

This arrangement gives you control now and peace of mind later.

Benefits of Using a Trust in an Online Will and Trust

  • Avoiding Probate: Assets in a trust do not go through probate, so your loved ones avoid delays and court costs.
  • Planning for Incapacity: If you can’t manage your affairs, your successor trustee can step in without court involvement.
  • Maintaining Privacy: Wills become public during probate. Trusts remain private.

These benefits make trusts a smart part of any online will and trust for Texans who want flexibility and control.

Key Differences Between a Will and a Trust

  • When They Take Effect: A will takes effect after death. A trust works immediately and continues after death.
  • Going Through Probate: A will goes to probate court. A trust avoids probate altogether.
  • Planning for Incapacity: A will doesn’t help while you’re alive. A trust can manage your affairs if you’re incapacitated.
  • Keeping Things Private: A will becomes public. A trust remains private.
  • Covering All Your Assets: A will controls only assets in your name. A trust must be funded during life or named as beneficiary.

How a Will and Trust Work Together

For many Texans, the best solution is to use both tools. That’s why our online will and trust package includes both:

  • Pour-Over Will: Ensures anything not already in your trust is added after death.
  • Revocable Living Trust: Manages assets now, during incapacity, and after passing—without probate.
  • A Unified Plan: One complete solution that protects your wishes and keeps things simple and affordable.

Why Choose the Texas Family Online Will and Trust Plan?

We created this plan to make estate planning fast, affordable, and legally valid for everyday Texans. It includes:

  • Last Will and Testament
  • Revocable Living Trust
  • Financial Power of Attorney
  • Medical Power of Attorney
  • Directive to Physicians (Living Will)
  • Declaration of Guardian

You can even add a one-hour virtual meeting with a licensed Texas attorney to review everything with you—ensuring your plan is accurate and aligned with your goals.
