What is the difference between a will and a trust in Texas?

A will directs how probate property should pass after death and can name an executor. A trust can hold or manage property under trust terms during life or after death. The better tool depends on the assets, family needs, privacy concerns, administration goals, and whether the trust is properly funded.

This is general information for Texas readers, not legal advice for a specific matter. The right answer can change when documents, deadlines, family conflict, taxes, business interests, fiduciary duties, or court requirements are involved.
