Estate Planning: 3 Reasons We Run the Other Way (and Why It’s Time to Stop)

Let’s be honest—most people would rather do just about anything than talk about estate planning. It can feel heavy, confusing, or something you’ll “get to later.”

But here’s the truth: everyone deserves peace of mind knowing their wishes will be honored and their loved ones cared for. Whether you’re leaving $10 or $10 million, estate planning in Texas helps make that happen.

At Gasper Law, we see the same three roadblocks come up again and again. Let’s talk about them—and how to move past them.

1. “I Don’t Want to Talk About Death.”

Totally fair. Conversations about death, illness, or money aren’t exactly light topics. But a few minutes of discomfort now can spare your loved ones months—or years—of confusion and stress later.

At Gasper Law, we make these conversations approachable. We take the time to explain your options with compassion, clarity, and a touch of humanity (and sometimes humor). You’ll leave feeling informed—not overwhelmed.

2. “It’s Never the Right Time.”

Life doesn’t slow down for estate planning. There’s always another deadline, family event, or Netflix series calling your name.But waiting doesn’t make things easier. Taking the first step now can actually bring relief—you’ll finally know exactly what’s needed to protect your people and your future.

Start by scheduling a Peace of Mind Planning Session (POMPS). Even if you decide not to move forward yet, you’ll leave with clear, personalized guidance for your next steps.
