Quoted in advance.
Honored to the dollar.

Estate planning is one of the few areas of law in which a flat fee is genuinely appropriate, because the work product is a known set of documents. We quote those documents at engagement, and the fee does not move thereafter.

— Our Fee Philosophy —

Why we don't bill by the tenth-hour.

i.

You should know the cost

Estate planning is too important to be priced by the meter. You deserve to walk in with a known number, not a billing surprise that arrives after signing.

ii.

Calls are encouraged

Hourly billing punishes the question you most need to ask. Our flat fee includes the conversations, the revisions, and the signing — every one of them.

iii.

Quality is fixed

The instruments we draft do not vary by the hour you can afford to pay. Every plan we deliver meets the same standard — partner-reviewed, twice-proofed, signed in office.

— Annual Plan-Review Retainer —

Stay current, not stale.

Estate plans drift out of alignment as families and tax law change. Our annual-review retainer includes one yearly plan review, unlimited brief calls, and beneficiary-designation audits — kept on the firm's calendar so you do not have to remember.

$450 / year
