The Impact Of A Car Accident On Your Estate Plan

The law is never put into practice in a vacuum; our services stand out in part because we keep all other aspects in mind as well. For example, auto accident injury claims and estate planning can overlap more than you might think.

If a victim of a car crash is left incapacitated, it is their estate planning documents that will empower trusted loved ones to make decisions on their behalf, telling doctors how to proceed.

If a person passes away after an accident and a wrongful death suit is won against the trucking company that caused their death, that money will go into their estate and be distributed according to the wishes they laid out in a will or the directions placed in a trust. When legal areas intersect, we help you see and plan the bigger picture.

What To Do After A Car Crash In Texas

If you have just been in a car accident, stay calm and follow the steps outlined below to protect yourself and your ability to recover damages.

Ensure your immediate safety at the scene, and then call the police and emergency services.
If possible, gather evidence at the scene, such as photographs and witness contacts.
Get medical attention, even if you do not think you need it, and follow all directions from your doctors.
If you have been injured, call our office and ask to speak to a personal injury attorney.

Texas Estate Planning FAQs

Q: How Will My Business Run After I Pass?

A: Your business is part of your legacy, and that means that unless you take steps to plan ahead and work with an attorney on a succession plan, you will have very little say in how it is run after you pass on.

On the other hand, if you place it in a trust or make other succession arrangements, it and your legacy will carry on under your direction for generations.

Q: Do I Need A Will Or Living Trust?

A: What estate planning documents you need will depend on your financial situation, the complexity of your goals, and what special provisions and instructions you wish to include. If you want your family to avoid the burdens of probate, however, a living trust will be necessary.

Q: When Should I Start Estate Planning?

A: Now. It is never too early to think about the future and what you are leaving behind for your loved ones. But it can quickly and unexpectedly become too late.
