Frequently asked questions
Do I really need an estate plan? +
If you have children, own a home, or care about who makes decisions for you in an emergency — yes. Without a plan, state law decides for you.
How long does it take? +
Most clients complete the online interview in 20–40 minutes. Your documents are typically ready for signing within a week.
Is this a real attorney service? +
Yes. Licensed attorneys review every plan. This is not a fill-in-the-blank form site.
What if my situation changes? +
Your information stays securely on file, so updates are quick and inexpensive.
