Plans & Fees
Estate Planning Services
I believe in being up front and transparent about my legal fees. Each estate plan is based upon my time investment to build a foundation for you. Each plan includes all planning sessions, phone calls and emails, the documents, a review/signing session, and any necessary follow up. At our initial planning session, I will outline a variety of additional planning options based upon you, your family, your concerns and wishes, and your assets. As we build your estate plan together, I will clarify whether there will be any additional fees involved.
Additional estate planning services, such as trust funding and amendments, can be quoted upon request.
