Why this matters

Love does not create legal authority.

When a stroke, accident, or diagnosis takes your voice, “next of kin” is not a legal plan. Without signed documents, the people closest to you can be locked out — exactly when minutes matter.

ACT I

A family without a plan

  • Doctors cannot freely share information
  • Banks may freeze or refuse access to accounts
  • Bills, benefits, and property matters stall
  • A guardianship court may end up deciding

ACT II

A family with a plan

  • Your chosen agent speaks with providers immediately
  • Financial authority is already on paper
  • Your written wishes guide the hard decisions
  • Your family acts — instead of waiting on a court

The difference between these two families is five signed documents. See what they are

Your incapacity bundle

Five documents. One coordinated plan.

Each document answers a different question your family may face. Together, they create a practical plan for medical, financial, and personal decisions.

01

Medical Power of Attorney

Choose someone you trust to make healthcare decisions if you cannot communicate or decide for yourself.

02

Durable Power of Attorney

Authorize a trusted person to handle financial, legal, and property matters during incapacity.

03

HIPAA Authorization

Allow designated loved ones to receive medical information from doctors, hospitals, and providers.

04

Directive to Physicians

Put your wishes about life-sustaining treatment and end-of-life medical decisions in writing.

05

Declaration of Guardian

State who you would want a court to appoint if guardianship ever becomes necessary.

Straightforward flat-fee pricing

One flat fee. Everything included.

A private virtual attorney consultation is included with purchase. No hourly billing, no surprise invoices.

Individual Incapacity Bundle

$300

One complete set of 5 documents

  • All five attorney-prepared documents
  • Personalized intake
  • Private virtual attorney consultation
  • Final signing instructions

Selecting a bundle begins the screening process — it does not charge you. Payment is collected only after the firm accepts the engagement.

The Couples Bundle requires both clients to consent to joint representation. If joint representation is not appropriate, the firm will discuss available alternatives before accepting payment.

Before you commit

You don’t pay until the firm accepts your matter.

Most people expect a law firm to take their money first and explain later. This works the other way around — and the terms are published before you spend anything.

01

A licensed Texas attorney prepares them

Not a form generator and not a template you fill in alone. The documents are drafted by an attorney licensed by the State Bar of Texas for use under Texas law.

02

You are not charged to find out if you qualify

Screening and the firm's conflict review come first. If the firm cannot accept your matter, no payment is collected at all.

03

The refund schedule is published before you pay

Exact percentages at every stage, in writing, up front. You will know what you get back and when before any money changes hands.

04

One flat fee, quoted before you start

$300 individual, $500 couples. No hourly billing, no retainer draw-down, and no invoice you did not expect.

If you change your mind, here is exactly what you get back.

The bundle price is an advance flat fee earned in stages. These figures come straight from the firm’s written engagement terms.

Refund amounts by service stage
If the engagement ends…IndividualCouplesRefunded
Before your consultation$300$500100%
After the consultation, before drafts$210$35070%
After initial drafts are delivered$60$10020%

After final documents are delivered, the fee is fully earned and no refund is scheduled, except as required by law or applicable professional obligations. Approved refunds are ordinarily returned to the original payment method within 10 business days.

How it works

From first click to a signed plan.

  1. 1

    Choose your bundle

    Individual or couples — the flat fee is shown up front.

  2. 2

    Quick eligibility check

    A few yes/no questions. The firm reviews and confirms acceptance in writing.

  3. 3

    Sign the engagement

    Each client signs electronically. Couples give informed consent to joint representation.

  4. 4

    Pay the flat fee

    Collected only after the firm accepts your matter.

  5. 5

    Meet, approve, sign

    Complete intake, meet your attorney virtually, approve your documents, and follow the signing instructions.

Take the first step

See if you qualify — about two minutes.

Answer a few yes/no questions. If everything checks out, the firm moves straight to your engagement paperwork. If anything needs a closer look, an attorney reviews it personally.

Keep it brief.

Do not include medical details or family history here. The firm requests more information only after its preliminary conflict review.

This is not the consultation.

The included virtual consultation is scheduled after your matter is accepted, the engagement agreement is signed, and payment is made.

About you

I am at least 18 and currently live in Texas.

I understand what these documents do, and I can communicate my own choices.

I can meet privately with the attorney by video, on my own.

I am doing this voluntarily — no one is pressuring me or directing my choices.

I am not under a court-ordered guardianship and have not been found legally incapacitated.

This is not an emergency — I do not need same-day help with a medical, financial, or guardianship crisis.

I understand this bundle does not include a will, trust, Medicaid planning, or any contested matter.

Quick conflict check

Have I (or anyone named above) previously contacted or been represented by The Demerson Firm?

Is anyone currently disputing my finances, property, care, decision-making authority, or guardianship?

Is another lawyer currently representing me on incapacity planning, guardianship, exploitation, divorce, or a related dispute?

Will someone other than me pay the fee?

Anything we should look at first?

Do any of these apply? Existing powers of attorney that may need to be revoked or replaced; concerns about abuse, exploitation, or family interference; someone else directing this process; a proposed agent in an active dispute; or a need for services beyond the five documents.

Acknowledgment

Submitting this form does not create an attorney-client relationship. Please provide only the information requested for preliminary screening and do not submit unnecessary confidential details.

Common questions

Know what to expect.

Is the consultation included?

Yes. A private virtual attorney consultation is included with purchase. It is scheduled after eligibility review, engagement, and payment.

When do I actually pay?

Only after the firm completes its conflict and eligibility review, you sign the engagement agreement, and the firm confirms acceptance in writing. Selecting a bundle starts the screening process — it does not charge you.

What if I change my mind after paying?

The bundle price is an advance flat fee earned in stages. If the engagement ends early, the unearned portion is refunded: 100% before your consultation, 70% after the consultation but before initial drafts, and 20% after drafts are delivered. Approved refunds are ordinarily returned within 10 business days.

Can you serve clients anywhere in Texas?

Yes. The service is designed for eligible Texas clients and is completed virtually, so an in-person office visit is not required.

What does the couples bundle include?

Each spouse receives an individual set of all five documents — ten documents total. Both clients must consent to joint representation, and the firm must first confirm that joint representation is appropriate.

When will my documents be ready?

Timing depends on completion of intake, the consultation, and the complexity of your instructions. You will receive the expected schedule when the firm accepts the matter.

What if the firm cannot accept my matter?

If a conflict or eligibility issue prevents the firm from accepting the matter, no attorney-client relationship is formed and no payment is collected. Any payment collected in error is refunded in full.

The right time to plan is before the crisis.

Give your family clarity when they may need it most.
