Wills, Estate Planning, and Probate Law A Will is a written legal declaration of a person's intentions which he or she wants or wills to be performed after his or her death. The Will makes dispositions of property, sets up trusts, and establishes guardians upon a person's death. Under Texas law a Will must identify the Testator, be written with "testamentary intent", and be executed with requisite testamentary formalities. It also requires that the Testator have "testamentary capacity" including being of sound mind. A Will can be straight forward and simple or very complex depending on the estate and what the Testator wants to accomplish. In drafting a Will a Texas lawyer will need to gather information from the Testator including estate assets; the names of beneficiaries, executors, trustees, & representatives; and the goals of the Testator. If you are interested in a Will, it is probably best to contact an attorney and pay a little bit to have things done correctly. If you do not an invalid Will can be thrown out resulting in substantial legal costs, delays, and unnecessary tax liability.
