Everyone Needs a Will
You don’t have to be sitting in high cotton to need an estate plan. If you think your little bungalow and piggy bank don’t qualify as an “estate” that needs to be planned, think again.
Whether King Ranch is your residence or just your favorite casserole recipe, every Texan needs a will and estate planning documents in place.
