Frisco/Plano Attorney

I recommend Susan Periquet. She's at the tollway and 121. She has many, many years of experience and has a little girl now also--soon to be 3 I believe.

Her numbers are ###-###-#### and ###-###-####. Her e-mail is ____@____.com and her website is www.collinwillsandprobate.com.

Please consider calling the Collin County Bar Association for a referral....or you can call me ###-###-####) at my office (I am a corporate attorney, but I can give you some good referrals).

I know that people will recommend some of the self-help books and will recommend a trust, but please consider talking to an attorney first. A trust is helpful in states where probate is difficult, costly or takes extended time (such as California). In Texas, a trust is not necessary unless you fall into a very high income category and have many real properties that are located in various states/countries. Probate is not expensive in Texas and it does not require an attorney to file a probate matter in Texas. A will is extremely important if you have minor children....if you do not provide for a guardian for your children, do you really want the state deciding where they go?

This is not legal advice, just friendly suggestion (have to make those disclaimers), but I will be happy to talk to you.

Albin Harrison Roach has a wonderful Estate Planning section. Curtis Harrison or Sharon Corsentino are GREAT at assisting families with their wills. Good Luck. His number is ###-###-####.

We used Curtis Harrison in Frisco and he was wonderful! I had sent my parents to him also for a complicated Trust and he did such a great job for them that they've recommended him to several of their friends.

I know this is not directly answering your question, but make sure you establish a trust in addition to a will. I've been watching Suze Orman and she says we need a trust in addition to a will and a lot of atty's will not go as far as setting up a trust document because if only have a will, your estate will have to go through probate, and the atty will generate more fees when you go through probate. I'm not an atty or a financial advisor, so I will stop there with my advice. Thanks.

My husband is an attorney in North Plano (Preston & Hedgcoxe, just south of 121) and does tons of wills and other important documents you will need. The will is just a small part of all the powers of attorney, guardianship documents for adults and children, etc. He does a great job of explaining everything you need and why you need it. He is the only attorney and it is his firm so you are guaranteed a lot of personal assistance and he will be writing up all of the documents, not an inexperienced associate. His number is ###-###-#### and his name is Kevan Benkowitz. Good luck!
