All-Inclusive

Everything Is Included

Everything is included except county recording fees ($15–$50) for your deed and notary.

01

Pour-Over Will

This “safety net” will catch any assets not transferred to your trust and direct them into the trust through probate. It also nominates guardians for minor children—something the trust cannot do.

02

Power of Attorney & Healthcare Directive

This document allows someone you trust to manage your financial affairs if you become incapacitated. Without it, your family may need a court conservatorship costing $10,000–$15,000. This combines a healthcare power of attorney (naming someone to make medical decisions) and a living will (stating your end-of-life care preferences).

03

Certification of Trust

This short document proves your trust exists without revealing its contents. You’ll need this when opening bank accounts or working with financial institutions.

04

Deed Preparation

For community property state homeowners, this is critical. A new deed transfers your home into the trust and we handle recording it with the county.

05

Funding Consultation

Funding consultation and instructions for transferring bank accounts, investment accounts, and other assets into your trust, plus worksheets to track what’s been transferred.

Other, if applicable

Business succession planning Multiple business entities Estates approaching or exceeding federal estate tax threshold Blended family situations requiring careful planning Special needs beneficiaries Asset protection concerns International assets or beneficiaries

Why We’re Different

Affordable, Without Cutting Corners

With over 30+ years of experience in both estate planning and trust litigation, our pricing is affordable because we believe everyone deserves quality planning, not just the wealthy.

Beware: online services or attorneys who use templates with minimal customization — a risky approach that often creates problems. They prepare documents but provide limited consultation or funding assistance.

These are almost always:

Automated online documents with no attorney review
Templates that don’t comply with State laws
Seminar promotions to sell financial products
Unenforceable documents that create problems
Comprehensive consultation, custom drafting, funding assistance, and ongoing support. Full-service planning at affordable pricing. We don’t cut corners—we simply believe in efficiency and accessibility rather than excessive markup.

No Hidden Fees

Common Hidden Fees to Beware Of

When comparing living trust costs, beware of these common hidden fees:

Other Attorneys
With Us
Consultation
Some attorneys charge $200–$500 for an initial consultation, then don’t apply it toward your final fee if you hire them. This is particularly frustrating if you’re price shopping.
Free consultation, no obligation.
Deed Preparation
Some attorneys charge $300–$500 per property to prepare deeds. If you own your home plus a rental property, that’s $600–$1,000 extra.
Your primary residence transfer included; additional properties at your county’s actual cost — no upcharge.
Amendments & Annual Fees
Your trust may need updates when you have children, move, or experience other life changes. Some attorneys charge $500–$1,500 per amendment, and some firms charge ongoing annual fees ($200–$500/year) for “trust maintenance” or document storage.
No annual fees. Your documents are yours. We provide updates when you need them.
Notarization
Some community property state laws require certain estate planning documents to be notarized. Some attorneys charge $15–$30 per notarization on top of their regular fees.
Notary services by your bank, or other means, can cost you zero. Using a local notary is always best. Once you receive your trust, our follow-up funding consultation will review what documents require notarization.
Revisions
If you want to make changes during the drafting process, some attorneys charge hourly fees ($300–$500/hour).
Reasonable revisions included. We want you to be completely satisfied.

Total Transparency

“What’s the Catch?”

You’re probably wondering: “How can you charge $1,398 when others charge $1,500, $2,000, $2,500, $5,000+?”

01

Online questionnaire reduces initial meeting time — or we can meet on Zoom and complete the questionnaire together. Most clients opt for this.

02

Document assembly technology that eliminates repetitive manual work.

03

Clear communication that reduces back-and-forth and keeps the process moving.

04

Systematic approach to common situations, refined over 30+ years.

By helping more families at affordable rates, we maintain a highly efficient practice where the client is first and foremost — without charging excessive fees.

Honest Guidance

When You Might Need a Specialist

While our affordable pricing works for most families, don’t get taken advantage of with overpriced legal fees.

If you own a business with multiple partners, complex valuation issues, or succession concerns, you may need specialized planning that costs $5,000–$10,000+.

If your estate exceeds the federal estate tax exemption, you need sophisticated tax planning that may cost $10,000–$25,000+.

If you anticipate serious family disputes, will contests, or disinheritance challenges, you may need extra-protective planning with a specialist.

If you have a special needs beneficiary requiring Medi-Cal or SSI benefit protection, specialized planning may cost $3,000–$5,000.

We handle most of these situations in our standard pricing. For highly specialized needs, we’ll refer you to the right specialist and coordinate with them.

If you’re a homeowner with straightforward assets and you’re quoted $2,000–$10,000 for a basic trust, you’re likely overpaying. Unless you have complex tax planning or business succession needs, we help you avoid paying for overpriced and unnecessary costs. Most trusts should be reviewed every 3–5 years or after major life events.

To avoid the costs and delays caused by court proceedings (probate), it is crucial that your assets are owned by your revocable living trust.

A new deed must be created, transferring real estate ownership from you as an individual to the trustee of your revocable living trust—namely, you.

NOTE: We are unable to fulfill deed requests in Alabama, Arkansas, District of Columbia, Louisiana, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, North Carolina, South Carolina, or Virginia.
