Appointment of Guardian for Children

An Appointment of Guardian for Children lets parents choose who will care for their minor children and manage their property if the parents die or become incapacitated.

What this document does

This document is for Texas parents who want to pre-designate a guardian of the person and/or estate for their minor children.
You enter the declarant's details, your children, a primary guardian, and optional alternate guardians for both person and estate.
When you finish, the app generates a completed Texas Appointment of Guardian Word document for review and signing.

When to use

Use this when a client with minor children wants to name who should raise them and manage their inheritance if the parents can no longer do so.
