Estate Planning Attorneys in Houston, Texas

Estate planning is one of the most meaningful steps you can take to protect your loved ones and ensure your wishes are honored. At Oath Law, our Houston office helps families create personalized estate plans that provide clarity, reduce stress, and bring long-term peace of mind. Whether you're designing your first plan or updating existing documents, we make the entire process simple, supportive, and easy to understand.

Trust and Estate Attorneys in Houston

A trust is a powerful tool that can simplify estate administration, protect your assets, and ensure your wishes are followed. Oath Law's Houston trust attorneys help you explore both revocable living trusts and irrevocable trusts, explaining how each one supports your goals.

A revocable living trust allows you to stay in control of your assets and make updates as your life evolves. An irrevocable trust provides stronger long-term protection and structure. We explain each option in clear, straightforward language so you can choose the trust solution that best fits your needs and your family's long-term future.

Wills and Estate Planning Lawyers in Houston

A will is the foundation of every solid estate plan. It outlines who receives your assets, names guardians for minor children, and provides your loved ones with clear instructions.

At Oath Law, our Houston estate planning lawyers walk you through each step of writing or updating your will. We help you clarify your wishes, make important decisions, and create a document that truly reflects your values. With a well-crafted will in place, your family has the guidance they need when it matters most.

Power of Attorney Lawyers in Houston

A Power of Attorney (POA) allows someone you trust to manage your financial and legal matters if you're unable to do so. Without a POA, your family may face delays and court complications just to handle essential responsibilities.

Our Houston team helps you choose the right person, define their authority, and prepare a durable POA that safeguards your interests. With this vital document in place, you can feel confident knowing your financial life will continue smoothly under any circumstances.

Healthcare Directives and Living Wills

A healthcare directive, also known as a living will, documents your preferences for medical care if you cannot communicate your wishes yourself. This gives your loved ones clarity and ensures your values guide your care during critical moments.

Oath Law's Houston team walks you through key medical decisions such as life support, comfort care, and emergency treatments. We help you document your wishes clearly so your family and medical team can act with confidence and compassion.

1. What's the difference between a will and a trust?

A will takes effect after death, while a trust can manage assets during your life and afterward.
