How Personalized Is This Texas Trust Plan?
Every family is different. Your estate plan should reflect that. Our guided system personalizes your documents to match your wishes while following Texas law.
Your plan adapts automatically based on your answers. Whether you are single, married, or part of a blended family, the
structure updates to match your household. If you are married, this platform is designed for spouse-first planning that fits most families. If you are looking to leave some or all assets to someone other than your spouse, this platform is not the right fit.
You choose who receives your property, when they receive it, and how your plan should work for your children or other
beneficiaries. Everything is laid out clearly so you can make confident decisions without feeling overwhelmed.
What You Can Customize
Our guided design walks you through clear choices so your plan fits your family and follows Texas law. You stay in control of
each decision without needing legal vocabulary or long appointments.
Household Profile
Enter each spouse’s legal name and contact details. Add your Texas home address and county so your documents match your household information. If you own your home, you can add deed information later.
Children and Guardians
List each child by full name. Tell us who is under 18. Choose your preferred guardian and a backup. On screen explanations
help you decide.
Existing Trust
Already have a revocable trust? We can restate it under the same name and original date. This keeps account titles and
existing deeds intact while updating the legal language.
Beneficiaries and Shares
Name up to 20 beneficiaries. Assign percentage shares that total 100. Add alternates so someone else receives a share if a
beneficiary cannot inherit. For specific gifts, you will use a handwritten form included in your plan. This makes special
items easy to update anytime without needing to buy a new plan.
Young Beneficiaries
Choose the age when a young beneficiary receives their share. Many parents select 25.
If Someone Passes First
Choose how to handle predeceased beneficiaries. Many families select per stirpes, which passes that person’s share down to
their children.
Remote Contingencies
Name specific people or charities to inherit if all named beneficiaries and their descendants pass away.
Financial and Medical Decision Makers
Choose trusted people to step in if both spouses are incapacitated or have passed away. Add alternates for financial
authority and medical authority, with space for contact details so they can be reached quickly.
How the Process Works
Our guided questionnaire walks you through each decision using clear explanations and simple choices. Most families finish in less than thirty minutes.
After you purchase the plan, you answer simple questions about your family, your property, and your wishes. Built in help
menus and short videos explain how to choose the right people for key roles, including guardians, financial agents, and
medical agents.
If your plan includes real estate, we provide guidance on transferring your property into your trust. If you want a
professional to prepare and record the deed, we can connect you with Book Law Firm, or you can use your own attorney if you prefer.
When you are done, your documents are created instantly and emailed to you in a clean, organized packet. You also receive
clear signing instructions and a short video that shows exactly where to sign, so many families print and sign their
documents the same day they create them.
Simple, Secure, and Private
We only collect the information required to generate valid Texas estate planning documents. You will never be asked for
Social Security numbers, birth dates, account numbers, or citizenship status during the main planning process.
Your information is used only to create your documents within the Texan system.
This keeps the process easier to complete and avoids collecting unnecessary information.
Texas Trust Plan Review
Every plan comes with a pre recorded video walkthrough based on a representative sample family’s documents. These reviews explain the
purpose of each form, help you confirm that your names and roles are correct, and show you exactly where to sign.
This step helps you review your documents with confidence before you sign. You will understand what each page does,
why it matters, and how it fits into your full Texas estate plan.
If you want even more assurance, you can add a one hour virtual consultation with a Texas licensed attorney. During that
meeting, the attorney can review your goals, discuss your choices, and help confirm that your plan matches what you want to accomplish.
