Have you thought about how your family would manage things if something happened to you? A simple, clear will helps protect your loved ones by making sure your wishes are respected. At Bromlow Law, PLLC, we believe creating your will should feel comforting and not complicated.
Attorney Laura Bromlow, a mom herself and someone who deeply values family harmony, knows that good planning can make a big difference. She’ll listen carefully to you and create a plan that matches what matters most to your family.
Why Do I Need a Will in Texas?
Creating a will helps you clearly say who gets your belongings when you pass away. Without a will, Texas courts make these important decisions for you, and their rules might not match your wishes.
Here’s why having a will matters for your family:
- Choose who gets your belongings: Clearly say who receives your home, money, and special family treasures.
- Care for your children: Pick someone you trust to take care of your kids if you can’t.
- Make things easier for loved ones: A clear will helps your family avoid confusion and reduces legal paperwork.
- Keep family peace: Thoughtful planning can stop disagreements before they start, helping your family stay close.
With a clear will, your family can focus on comforting each other instead of worrying about legal details.

What’s in a Simple Texas Will?
Creating a solid Texas will is easier than you think. Here are some important parts. We also added real-life examples of a typical Texas family.
- Beneficiaries: Clearly name who gets your belongings, family, friends, or charities you care about. Carlos lists his wife, Elena, to receive their house and savings. He names each of their two kids to split his baseball card collection. He also leaves $1,000 to the animal shelter he loves.
- Executor: Choose a trusted person who will handle your estate, pay bills, and follow your instructions. He chooses his cousin Maya, an accountant he trusts, to pay final bills and carry out his wishes.
- Debts and Taxes: Make it clear how bills or taxes will be handled from your estate money. Carlos says any credit-card balances and property taxes should be paid first from a savings account he set aside.
- Leftover Property: Say what happens to any property or items you haven’t already listed. If anything is missed, like a boat he might buy one day, he states that Elena will receive it.
Here’s a simple way to understand some important terms you’ll see:
| Term | Meaning | Example |
| Executor | The person you choose to handle your will. | Your sister handles all your estate details. |
| Beneficiary | A person who receives your belongings. | Your children get your house and savings. |
| Codicil | An update to your will. | Changing your executor or adding a grandchild later. |
