No. The children's trust is part of the will you build, in every plan. It appears when you tell us you have a child under 18 and choose an inheritance age above 18. You do not buy it separately and you do not sign a second document for it.
It keeps your child's inheritance from landing in a young person's hands all at once. In your will it is a testamentary trust: the person you name holds and manages the money, may use it for your child's health, education, maintenance and support, and gives your child the rest at the age you picked.
Pick 18 and the will does not create a trust for that child. You may still name a custodian under the Texas transfers-to-minors law for property that goes to a person under 21.
Attorney review is offered separately by Texas Defense Team, a Texas law firm in Austin (Stephen T. Bowling, attorney). MaxWills by Max AI, Inc. is a document preparation service and not a law firm.
