Estate Planning Attorney in Dallas, TX

Flat-fee estate plans for Dallas families. Wills, trusts, powers of attorney — explained in plain English.

Dallas is a major financial and corporate hub with a population that includes everyone from young professionals in Uptown to established families in Park Cities, Lake Highlands, and the northern suburbs. The city's economy is driven by banking, telecommunications, defense, and a rapidly growing tech sector. Many Dallas residents have complex compensation packages that include stock options, restricted stock, deferred compensation, and substantial retirement accounts. These are the kinds of assets that create real problems when there is no estate plan in place.

We work with Dallas families through a fully virtual process. Jon Miller is licensed in Texas and conducts consultations, plan design, and document review by video call. Signing packages are shipped to your Dallas address, and we arrange mobile notary services in the area. The virtual approach works well for Dallas professionals who are already accustomed to handling business remotely.

Dallas is in Dallas County, and probate matters go through the Dallas County Probate Courts. Texas allows independent administration of estates, which is simpler than the supervised probate used in many other states, but a revocable living trust still avoids the process entirely and keeps your financial details out of public court records.

Texas Estate Planning Law

Texas is a community property state with some of the strongest homestead protections in the country. The Texas homestead exemption is unlimited in value for qualifying property, which creates unique estate planning opportunities and constraints. Texas also has specific rules around independent administration of estates, which can simplify probate when properly set up. The state does not have a state income tax or state estate tax, but federal estate tax thresholds still apply.
