At the Monceaux Law Firm, I offer a full range of services relating to wills, including drafting, review, amendment, revocation and execution. My experience enables me to provide reliable and practical estate planning advice to people from all walks of life. I understand that it can feel overwhelming to make plans for the property and assets you have accumulated over a lifetime, and it can be difficult to think about how your children should be cared for if the unthinkable happens. My goal is to help people in the Dallas area and throughout Texas to create wills in which they can feel confident and secure. I handle estates of all sizes and level of complexity, creating clear and enforceable instructions that accurately convey my clients’ intentions.

An error in the drafting of your will can cause confusion in the court and conflict among your heirs. To make sure that your wishes can be carried out, it is wise to hire a respected lawyer. Through the Monceaux Law Firm, I offer pertinent and personal legal advice for drafting valid wills.

If you die without a will, Texas law will determine how your estate is distributed, not you! I can draft clear, legally sound wills that include considerations for:
As your life unfolds, your circumstances and concerns may shift. To remain current, you should review and update your will intermittently. I can advise you on your will in light of your current finances, marital status and family situation. The Monceaux Law Firm can also add valid supplements (known as codicils) that address changes in your state of affairs and outlook.
