Your estate plan should reflect your family, your priorities, and the people who will have to make decisions when you cannot. It’s not about the documents. It’s about making sure the paper matches the picture.
I’m Craig Choate, a Texas attorney with more than 30 years of experience. At Craig A. Choate, PC, I help individuals, families, and business owners plan for life and protect what matters.
My practice focuses on estate planning, probate, and business planning. Whether you need a will, a revocable living trust, powers of attorney, or a review of an existing plan, we start with a conversation about what you want to accomplish. Avoiding probate may be one goal. Providing for a surviving spouse, protecting children, planning for incapacity, and making things manageable for the people you leave in charge deserve attention, too.
I also help families navigate probate after a death, with practical guidance about the steps ahead and the responsibilities involved.
For business owners, I assist with LLC formation, company agreements, contracts, and planning for continuity and succession. A business needs a sound foundation—and a plan for what happens when the person running it is suddenly unavailable.
Adoption is another meaningful part of my practice. I help stepparents and relatives work through the legal process of making their family relationships permanent.
My approach is straightforward: listen carefully, explain your options in plain English, and build a plan that fits your real life. Because real life rarely follows the script.
I serve clients throughout North Texas, including Grapevine, Southlake, Colleyville, and surrounding communities. A free 15-minute introductory call is a good place to start.
Leave a legacy, not a landmine.
