Texas Wills, Trusts, and Estates is designed for law school courses covering intestate succession, wills, trusts, estate administration, and the fundamentals of estate planning. The cases, problems, and questions are drawn extensively from Texas materials and attempt to provide the student with a comprehensive understanding of how property transmission at death and via inter vivos trusts are handled in Texas. The second edition was updated to cover significant developments from the 2019, 2021, 2023, and 2025 sessions of the Texas Legislature such as the Rule Against Perpetuities and purpose trusts. In addition, new cases were added to address topics including reformation of unambiguous wills, acceptance of benefits precluding will contests, and contractual wills.
