Estate planning
A good plan is a gift to the people you leave behind. We keep it simple, explain every page and make sure it is signed the right way.
We can help with
- Wills
- Revocable living trusts
- Powers of attorney
- Health care directives
- Guardianship for minor children
- Probate and estate administration
Fees
Flat fees for every plan, quoted before we start. Probate is billed hourly or as a flat fee, your choice.
You get the fee in writing before any work starts.
What to expect
How your matter will go
Step I
A short questionnaire
You tell us about your family and what you own. It takes about 20 minutes.
Step II
A plain language draft
We send the documents with a one page summary of what each one does.
Step III
A signing meeting
We meet to sign, with witnesses and a notary, so everything is valid.

Probate · Estate planning
A trust we set up years earlier let a family transfer their parents' home in a month, without probate.
Every case is different. Past results do not guarantee or predict a similar result in any future case.

What clients say
Our trust took two meetings and one afternoon of reading. It was much easier than we feared.

Estate planning questions
Do I need a trust, or is a will enough?
It depends on what you own, where it is and who it goes to. Many people only need a will and powers of attorney. We will tell you honestly which fits.
How often should I update my plan?
Look at it every three to five years, and after any big change: a marriage, a divorce, a new child, a move or a large purchase.
