Why You Should Create A Will
There are a great many benefits of having a will. You can use such a document to:
- Protect your goals for your assets: By specifying who will receive your property after you pass away
- Protect your children: By choosing a guardian to care for them should something happen to you
- Put your estate in trusted hands: By naming a personal representative who will implement the terms of your will during the probate process
- Reduce future stress for your family: By setting out clear well-written instructions that could allow for a smoother division of estate assets

What Happens If You Die Without A Will In Texas?
Without a will, state intestacy law will dictate what happens to your assets. This means your wishes will not be in control during probate. This could lead to a result that is very different from what you would want.
Can You Make Changes To Your Will After It’s Created?
Yes, you can. There are two main ways to do so in Texas:
- You can amend your existing will through a document known as a codicil
- You can create a new will to replace your existing one
Only you have the authority to change your will. You can’t transfer this authority to someone else through a power of attorney.
