To make sure that you get a Will which can be admitted to probate in Texas, which will not require your executor to post a bond, which will allow your executor to settle your estate (including your online accounts) free of court supervision (and so at a significantly lower cost), contact an estate planning attorney. You can find one on this website or on that of the State Bar of Texas. This is an excellent opportunity to also arrange to stay in charge during your retirement years. You might consider contacting an estate planning attorney who is also an elder law attorney. You can find one using the website of the National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys (www.naela.org). It can cost less than you may imagine and save you thousands of dollars in legal and court fees later on.
