How a Consumer Hired a Lawyer to Draft a Revocable Living Trust in Texas

In 2025, a personal client in Texas posted a project seeking assistance with drafting a revocable living trust. The client aimed to establish the trust for asset protection and to ensure a seamless transition of their estate in the event of death, thereby avoiding probate. They sought to tailor the trust such that only designated beneficiaries would benefit, safeguarding the assets from any claims by beneficiaries' spouses. As a result, the client received six proposals from licensed lawyers, with flat fee bids ranging from $495 to $4,500, all submitted to meet the requested deadline of less than a week.
