Estate Planning Attorney in Lewisville, TX — Protecting Growing Families
Lewisville is a community in motion — a fast growing city in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, drawing young families, established professionals, and entrepreneurs to its vibrant neighborhoods, Lake Lewisville waterfront, and access to major employment corridors along SH-121. With that growth comes responsibility, and for many Lewisville families, that responsibility includes ensuring the life you are building is legally protected.
The team at The Morris Legal Group provides trusted estate planning services to individuals and families throughout Lewisville, helping you create a plan that works for your life today and adapts as your family grows, your assets increase, and your circumstances evolve.
Why Lewisville Families Cannot Afford to Wait on Estate Planning
Many Lewisville residents are in the prime season of building — new homes, growing families, advancing careers. Estate planning can feel like something to address later. The reality is that the earlier you establish a plan, the more protected your family is during the years when they need it most.
A will ensures your assets go to the people you choose. A guardianship designation ensures your children are raised by the person you trust. A power of attorney ensures someone you love — not a court — makes decisions for you if something unexpected happens. These protections matter most when life is fullest and most unpredictable.

Roy G. Morris — Lewisville’s Estate Planning Attorney with a Rare Dual Perspective
Roy G. Morris brings something to clients that very few attorneys in the DFW market can offer: a perspective trained simultaneously in accounting, taxation, and law — and a career history that reflects how that training performs under real-world pressure.
Before founding The Morris Legal Group, Mr. Morris worked as a tax specialist at Arthur Andersen, one of the most prestigious accounting firms in the world. He earned his J.D. from the University of Texas School of Law and a Master’s Degree in Taxation from DePaul University. He then received dual federal government appointments — first to lead litigation teams closing banking and lending institutions and then to develop the in-house litigation section of the FDIC. These were not honorary titles. They were institutional appointments made because the legal and financial communities trusted his judgment with matters of significant consequence.
What this means for your Lewisville estate plan: Mr. Morris looks beyond the legal forms to the financial and tax dimensions of every decision — which beneficiary designations are most tax-efficient, how trust structures interact with retirement accounts, and what the long-term economic implications are for your specific family situation. Most attorneys know what the law requires. Roy G. Morris knows what the law requires and what every decision costs, saves, and means at tax time.
Most attorneys know what the law requires. Roy G.

That triple-trained perspective, delivered with the personal attention of a boutique firm, is what the team at The Morris Legal Group has brought to clients throughout Denton County and the DFW area for over 28 years.

Frequently Asked Questions — Estate Planning Attorney in Lewisville, TX
Q: How do I protect my minor children through estate planning?
Protecting minor children is one of the most urgent reasons Lewisville families pursue estate planning. Through your will, you can designate a guardian — the person who would raise your children if something happened to both parents. You can also create a trust that manages assets on behalf of your children until they reach an age you specify, rather than having them receive a lump sum at 18. Without these documents, a Texas court makes both decisions for you, and the result may not reflect your wishes.
Q: Do I need an estate plan if I am young or have few assets?
Absolutely. Estate planning is for anyone who has people who depend on them or preferences about how they want to be cared for if incapacitated. Even a modest estate plan provides critical protections: a will directs your assets, a healthcare directive ensures your medical wishes are honored, and a power of attorney ensures someone you trust can act on your behalf. These documents matter most when you are young, because life’s unexpected moments rarely wait for a convenient time.
Q: What is the difference between a will and a living trust?
