Does Texas have an estate tax?
Good news, Texas does not have an estate tax. Even better, as of 2015, Texas has no inheritance tax. However, depending on your circumstances, you may still be subject to federal estate taxes. Our Dallas estate planning attorneys can help you determine what you are liable for and what steps you need to take.

Living Trusts: Plan for the Best Possible Outcome

During your Texas estate planning appointments, our team will put together comprehensive living trusts that accurately reflect your wishes and unique circumstances, no matter how involved they are.
