Guardianship ✦ Estate Planning ✦ Probate
We help families plan ahead, protect what they've built, and navigate what comes after the unexpected.
Services We Offer
Estate Planning
A plan that puts your wishes in writing to include what you own, who inherits it, and who makes decisions on your behalf if you're no longer able to. We build it around your life and keep it current as things change.
✦Wills & Trusts
A will says who inherits and who the representative of your estate is. A trust adds privacy, protection, and a way around probate. We'll tell you which one your situation calls for and draft it to last.
✦Protective Planning
The documents most people put off are the ones that matter most during your lifetime: powers of attorney, healthcare directives, guardianship designations, prenuptial planning, and disclaimer of interests; we make sure they're in place before you need them.
✦Guardianship
Guardianship puts the right person in charge when someone can't make decisions for themselves. We handle everything from the initial petition to annual court reporting so you're never navigating it alone.
✦Probate & Estate Administration
From simple to complex, contested to uncontested, we handle the full probate process, including alternatives when court is not required.
✦Real Property in Estates
Real property doesn't transfer automatically when someone dies. We handle the deeds, title matters, and legal filings that move it to the right hands, whether through probate, an affidavit, or a trust.
Lizeth “Liz” Jacobo
Liz built her practice around a simple idea: families facing uncertainty deserve a lawyer who makes the process clearer, not harder. She uses a client-first approach, explaining options in plain terms, keeping clients informed at every step, and resolving matters efficiently. And when disputes can't be avoided, Liz brings her courtroom experience to contested matters, including contested guardianships, estate and trust litigation.
After earning her undergraduate degree from Houston Baptist University (now Houston Christian University), Liz received her law degree from South Texas College of Law Houston and began her career as a litigation attorney, before founding her own firm. The shift to guardianship, estate planning and probate was a move toward the part of the law she found most meaningful: sitting with families during some of the hardest moments of their lives and helping them find a clear path forward.
Liz is fully bilingual and represents clients in English and Spanish.
