Texas Estate Planning for Families with Significant Assets
Are all estate planning and probate law firms the same? Not if you consider the comprehensive knowledge offered at Ikard & Golden.
Our firm offers decades of experience in all legal services relating to:
Our senior attorneys and of-counsel attorneys are members of numerous professional associations related to estate planning, probate and trust administration. Our senior attorneys are board certified in Estate Planning and Probate Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization and regularly consult members of the Texas State Legislature on laws relating to Probate, Trust, Guardianship and Community Property.
Our senior attorneys routinely lecture at continuing legal education programs sponsored by the State Bar of Texas, local bar associations and various colleges and universities. Principal attorney Alvin J. Golden has filed amicus curiae briefs with the United States Supreme Court and members of our legal staff have written numerous articles and research papers that have been cited in legal periodicals and court opinions.
In addition, our commitment to the Real Estate, Probate and Trust Section of the State Bar of Texas and the Texas Academy of Probate and Trust Lawyers has resulted in our involvement in nearly every piece of legislation affecting Texas probate, guardianship and trust law since the 1970's. In fact, two of our attorneys were involved in the drafting of the current Texas Trust Code.
We are a proud member of the International Network of Boutique Law Firms, which is an organization of the most highly credentialed and preeminent single-discipline law firms throughout the United States and some of the world's most prominent full-service law firms in foreign nations.
