Digital Resources for Advanced Planning During Difficult Times

April 14, 2020 Guest User

Yesterday, Houston Volunteer Lawyers announced publication of a new resource; a Do-It-Yourself Guide for Handwritten “Holographic” Wills. This is an excellent resource for Texans who are unable to access services to help with estate planning, such as HVL’s Will-a-thon program, during this time of public health concern.

Advanced Planning Resources

HVL’s announcement reminds us that it is important to know where to find resources to plan for incapacity when you are ready to do so. To help, here are some resources that provide information about wills, powers of attorney, medical directives, and more:

  • Self-help eBooks from the Texas State Law Library

  • Free access to Guardianship Manual from TexasBarBooks

  • Advance Directive forms, including a Durable Statutory Power of Attorney form, from the Texas Department of Health and Human Services

  • Transfer on Death Deed - forms and information from TexasLawHelp.org
