Professionalism

An idiot who totally mishandled the guardianship case for my mother. He never returned calls or emails. He even failed to file my guardianship request and when I found out, I was furious! Thank God I was able to find another attorney who successfully handled the case in a professional manner. Stay away from this one.

Wills
A living will is similar to a will. However, it gives instructions for your care if you are to become incapacitated due to some injury or illness. While it’s never expected, it’s unfortunately not all that uncommon for people to become unable to communicate and make decisions for themselves. If you end up in this situation, your loved ones could be faced with extremely difficult decisions when it comes to your medical care. Attorney Eric Smith assists clients with wills, living wills, and other directive documents in Texas. When you need an experienced lawyer to draft or review your will, contact our office. Eric assists clients in Dallas County, Johnson County, and
Trusts
The difference between a will and a living trust is that a trust is in effect while the settlor is still alive and does not have to be cleared by a court when they die. A living trust is managed by a trustee who has a legal obligation to manage the trust as specified by the settlor. A revocable trust allows you to keep ownership of the assets in the trust. You have the freedom to revoke or modify the terms of a revocable trust as you please. If you use an irrevocable trust, you no longer have access to the assets you place in it and you can’t change the terms. The benefit to using an irrevocable trust is that appreciated assets are not subject to estate taxes.
Power of Attorney
A general power of attorney (POA) is a legal document that grants someone else the power to act on your behalf in a broad sense. The actions taken typically include handling your personal finances and business affairs. A general power of attorney is effective when you plan to be out of the country. In this situation, you may need someone else to handle important matters. They are also useful if you are to become physically or mentally incapacitated. Illness or injury could render you unable to manage your own financial affairs. These documents can be an integral part of your estate plan in certain situations.
