Comprehensive Estate Planning
Services in Round Rock, Texas
Planning for your family’s future is one of the most meaningful decisions you will ever make. At Texas Trust Law, we believe estate planning is not about preparing for death but about protecting the life you have built. Through our proven LifePlanning™ process, Round Rock families gain the clarity, protection, and peace of mind they deserve, with a plan as unique as the people it protects.
Why Round Rock Families Need a Personalized Estate Plan
Texas is a state that values family, hard work, and independence. But without a proper estate plan, the state, not you, decides what happens to everything you have worked to build.
If you die without a valid will in Texas, your estate falls under intestate succession laws. These laws distribute your assets according to a rigid legal formula that may have nothing to do with your actual wishes. A distant relative could inherit ahead of the people you love most. Your minor children could end up in the care of someone you would not have chosen. Your home, your savings, and your legacy become subject to a court process that is slow, expensive, and entirely out of your control.
Incapacity is an equally serious risk. Without a Durable Power of Attorney or Medical Power of Attorney in place, your family may be forced to pursue costly, court-supervised guardianship just to manage your finances or make healthcare decisions on your behalf. For Round Rock families in the 78664, 78665, and 78681 zip codes, that means navigating the legal system during an already painful time.
A personalized estate plan prevents all of this. It puts you in control.
Our Round Rock Estate Planning Specializations
Texas Trust Law provides a full range of estate planning services tailored to the needs of Round Rock residents, from first-time planners to those reviewing existing documents after a major life change.
A last will is the foundation of any estate plan, but it is not always enough on its own. For families with significant Round Rock real estate, business interests, or blended family situations, a Revocable Living Trust often provides a better solution. Trusts avoid probate entirely, keeping your affairs private and allowing your assets to pass to your loved ones quickly and without court involvement. Texas Trust Law also prepares Special Needs Trusts for families planning for a child or loved one with disabilities, as well as Irrevocable Trusts designed for long-term tax efficiency and asset protection.
Asset Protection
Round Rock has experienced significant growth in its technology and business corridor along the US-183 and SH-45 corridors. For business owners, professionals, and entrepreneurs in this area, protecting personal assets from business liability requires intentional legal planning. Our attorneys develop customized strategies designed to shield what you have built.
Incapacity Planning
A complete estate plan addresses not only what happens after you pass but also what happens if you cannot make decisions for yourself. We prepare Durable Powers of Attorney, Medical Powers of Attorney, HIPAA Releases, and Advance Directives (Living Wills) to ensure your financial and healthcare wishes are honored, including at local facilities such as St. David’s Round Rock Medical Center.
Guardianship Designations
For parents in Round Rock, designating a guardian for minor children is one of the most important decisions in any estate plan. Without a formal designation, a judge decides who raises your children. Our attorneys ensure your parenting wishes are legally documented and honored
The Texas Trust Law Difference: The Peace Of Mind People®
Texas Trust Law is led by Brad Wiewel, a Board Certified Estate Planning and Probate Law attorney, a distinction held by less than one percent of Texas attorneys. Board Certification by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization means demonstrated expertise, peer recognition, and a proven commitment to excellence in this area of law.
We also believe legal planning should be straightforward and predictable. That is why Texas Trust Law operates on a fixed-fee model. You will never receive an hourly billing statement or an unexpected invoice. From your first consultation to your completed plan, you know exactly what your investment will be.
Our LifePlanning™ process moves estate planning beyond documents and into real protection through three clear steps:
Plan Design begins with a thorough consultation to understand your family, your assets, and your goals. We customize every element of your plan to reflect your life, not a generic template.
Asset Coordination ensures that your bank accounts, real estate titles, and beneficiary designations are properly aligned with your plan. A trust that does not include your assets provides no protection.
Ongoing Support keeps your plan current as your life changes. Tax laws evolve, families grow, and circumstances shift. We provide regular review opportunities so your plan never becomes outdated.
5 Signs Your Current Estate Plan is Outdated
Many Round Rock residents relocated from other states, particularly as the Austin metro has grown. If any of the following apply to you, it is time for a review:
- You moved to Texas from another state and have not had your documents reviewed under Texas law.
- You experienced a marriage, divorce, or the birth of a child since your plan was created.
- A family member named in your documents has passed away, or your relationship with them has changed.
- You purchased a new property or established a business interest in Texas.
- Federal or state tax laws have changed in ways that affect your estate.
