Add a Personal Touch with a Legacy Video

At Ledbetter Anderson & Associates, LLC, we believe estate planning should be both legally sound and deeply personal. That’s why every client has the opportunity to create a complimentary legacy video—a heartfelt message you can leave for your loved ones.


A legacy video is a recorded message from you to your loved ones that outlines your wishes, explains your intentions, and offers emotional support. It helps ensure your voice is heard and remembered, offering a personal touch that written documents alone may not capture. At our firm, it's included with all estate planning and probate law services.

Common Questions About Wills & Trusts

  • Do I need both a will and a trust in Texas?

    Not everyone needs both—but many people find that having both a will and a trust offers the most complete protection. A will can address matters a trust may not, such as naming guardians for minor children, while a trust can help avoid probate for certain assets and offer added protection as you build a lasting legacy.

  • How is a trust better than a will in Houston, TX?

    A trust can help you avoid probate, reduce legal costs, and keep your estate details private. It’s often recommended for complex estates or when privacy is important.

  • What happens if someone dies without a will in Texas?

    When a person dies without a will (intestate), their assets are distributed according to Texas intestacy laws. The court will determine the heirs and appoint an administrator to manage the estate. This process can be more time-consuming and costly than probating a valid will.

  • When should I update my will or trust?

    Anytime you have a major life event—like marriage, divorce, a new child, or a significant asset change—you should review and possibly revise your documents.


  • What is a legacy video, and how does it help with estate planning?

    A legacy video is a recorded message from you to your loved ones that outlines your wishes, explains your intentions, and offers emotional support. It helps ensure your voice is heard and remembered, offering a personal touch that written documents alone may not capture. At our firm, it's included with all estate planning and probate law services.
