We Provide Personalized Estate Planning Services in San Antonio and Throughout South Central Texas

It is human nature to plan for some things and avoid planning for others. People plan family gatherings, they plan trips out of town, they plan what to have for dinner. But it is not uncommon for people to put off planning the specifics of what will happen to everything they’ve worked so hard for once they are gone.

While estate planning is not one of those things you look forward to doing, it is one of the most important steps people can take to make sure their final property and healthcare wishes are honored. It also helps ensure that loved ones are provided for in their absence. Putting off estate planning until tomorrow is a risk.

At Weisinger Law Firm, PLLC, our San Antonio estate planning lawyers are dedicated to helping people find peace and security through planning. We will take the time to listen to your story, understand your objectives, and create a plan that truly works for you and your loved ones.

We Provide

Comprehensive
Estate Planning Services

Our mission is to serve Texas families with integrity, consistency, and excellence. With experience providing the full range of estate planning services, we are here to help put together the legal structure to best protect you, your family, and your assets. Estate planning is personal. It is about achieving your goals and protecting what matters most to you. Among other things, our San Antonio estate planning team can assist you with:

Wills

A will is a core estate planning document. Every adult in Texas should have a legally accepted last will and testament. A well-prepared will can save your family and loved ones a tremendous amount of confusion and frustration. Our Texas estate planning team can help you draft a will that effectively achieves your objectives.

Trusts

Even with a will in place, you may also want to set up a trust. Trusts are estate planning vehicles that can be an efficient way to transfer property/assets. At Weisinger Law Firm, PLLC, our San Antonio estate planning lawyers have the knowledge and focus to help clients set up the full range of trusts.

Probate

Probate is the legal process through which a person’s will (or lack of will) is confirmed and their assets are transferred to the right beneficiaries. Our Texas estate planning lawyers can help you prepare for probate, navigate the process, and represent you should a dispute arise.

Powers of Attorney

A comprehensive estate plan does more than simply protect your property. It also protects you should you become injured, ill, or otherwise incapacitated. Our San Antonio estate planning lawyers can help you set up a durable power of attorney, medical power of attorney, and advance health care directives.

Special Needs Planning

Special needs individuals require specialized consideration in estate planning. Unfortunately, leaving property/assets directly to a loved one with special needs could undermine their eligibility for certain government programs, including Medicaid and Social Security. Please know that there are estate planning options available. Our San Antonio estate planning attorneys can assist you in setting up a Special Needs Trust (SNT) so that you are still able to offer support for a vulnerable loved one as part of your estate plan.

Estate Planning

is for everyone

Contrary to popular belief, estate planning isn’t only for the wealthy. All families need to have a plan in place in the event that something happens to the family’s income. Without a plan in place, there could be a long-lasting impact on your loved ones, even if you don’t have an expensive home, investments, or real estate.

Understanding the estate planning options that are right for you can be a complex undertaking. The professionals at Weisinger Law Firm are ready to help you identify your estate planning needs, recognize potential solutions, and assist you at every step of the estate planning process.

beneficiaries receive

what you have in mind

Whether your estate consists of a few shares of stock, your grandmother’s wedding ring, a few acres of land, or a trust fund, you won’t able to decide who is going to get it when you pass away without a comprehensive estate plan. A major part of estate planning is designating which heirs will receive your assets.

Without an estate plan, this process can take years and get messy. A court doesn’t know which of your family members should be receiving your assets without an estate plan. Our San Antonio estate planning attorneys can help you and your loved ones create a personalized estate plan that will make the asset designation process smooth and simple.

your children

What if the unthinkable happens and you pass away while your children are still young? What will happen to them? Choosing a guardian for your children is an extraordinarily important step in ensuring that they are taken care of how, and by whom, you choose.

Without this guardian designation, a judge will be the one who makes the incredibly important decision of who will raise your children.

stop heirs from

overpaying estate taxes

One of the more important aspects of estate planning is transferring assets to heirs while keeping the tax burden as small as possible, and protecting your loved ones from big tax hits. Even with just a little bit of estate planning, couples can reduce much or even all of their federal and state taxes.

Without a plan, the amount that your heirs will owe Uncle Sam could be quite a lot.

take care of

family bickering

It’s tragic, but sometimes siblings don’t get along after the death of a parent. Some siblings may think they deserve a larger share of the estate than the others, or that they should be in charge of the finances even though they’ve never been particularly responsible with money. Unfortunately, these situations can get ugly, with families warring against each other.

But an estate plan helps to alleviate much of this infighting and gives you the opportunity to specify the role you want each person to play once you are no longer able to do so
