Your home, your family, and everything you’ve worked hard to build deserve thoughtful planning and protection.
At Misteli Law Firm, we help McKinney individuals and families create personalized estate plans that protect loved ones, preserve assets, and provide clear guidance for the future.
Whether you’re raising a family in Stonebridge Ranch, enjoying life near Historic Downtown McKinney, or preparing for retirement, we help you make informed decisions about protecting what matters most.
For many McKinney residents, their home represents one of their most significant investments. But protecting your family’s future involves more than deciding who inherits your property.
A comprehensive estate plan can include wills, living trusts, powers of attorney, advance directives, and guardianship nominations for minor children.
We help you understand how these documents work together to protect your assets, prepare for incapacity, and provide clear instructions for your loved ones. With proper planning, you can reduce the risk of unnecessary court involvement, delays, and family disagreements.

We believe estate planning should be personal, understandable, and focused on your family’s unique needs.
Through our Life & Legacy Planning® process, we take the time to learn about your relationships, financial circumstances, and long-term goals before recommending legal strategies.
Our goal is to help you create a plan that works when your family needs it, while keeping your loved ones out of court and conflict whenever possible.
If you die without a valid will, Texas intestacy laws determine who inherits your probate assets. Depending on your marital status, family relationships, and property ownership, the outcome may be different from what you intended. Creating an estate plan allows you to document your wishes rather than relying on the state’s default inheritance rules.
Yes. A properly established and funded living trust can allow certain assets to transfer to your beneficiaries without going through probate. Trusts can also provide instructions for managing assets if you become incapacitated and establish how and when beneficiaries receive their inheritance.

The best time to create an estate plan is before your family needs one.
At Misteli Law Firm, we help McKinney families prepare for life’s uncertainties with personalized guidance and comprehensive estate planning.
Protect what you’ve built and give your loved ones a clearer path forward.
