WHAT’S THE COST?
-
We recognize that every estate is different, and so are the needs of those managing it. That’s why we offer three tailored plans with different levels of support and affordable pricing.
-
The DIY Plan leverages our proprietary probate software to provide a straightforward, effective solution for estate management. With this plan, you’ll complete our custom-built questionnaire, much like TurboTax, and receive a personalized agenda along with all the necessary pre-filled forms tailored to your unique circumstances. You will be provided with clear instructions, a tailored checklist, and ready-to-use, pre-filled forms to ensure you have everything you need to navigate the probate process independently and with confidence. This plan is perfect for those who are comfortable handling the legal and administrative aspects of estate settlement on their own. For your convenience, we offer a 30-minute consultation following the completion of the questionnaire to ensure you understand the instructions and forms provided.
-
The Support Plan includes all the features of our DIY Plan, with the added benefit of up to 2.5 hours of personalized guidance from a probate expert. This service covers answering any questions and reviewing probate reports to ensure they are accurate and compliant. Alternatively, you can forgo the software and receive up to 3 hours of expert support instead.
-
Pricing for our Full-Service Plan is based on the complexity and scope of work involved, typically ranging from $750 to $6,000. After an initial consultation with one of our probate experts, we will provide a customized quote tailored to your specific needs. This comprehensive plan offers expert guidance and support throughout the entire probate process. Our services include preparing probate reports (such as notices, affidavits of notice, inventory, and accounting), assisting with asset transfers and debt settlement, calculating beneficiary distributions, and handling related tasks with care and precision.
