Question 5

Do I need an attorney to complete this?

Accepted Answer

No attorney is required. Our system was designed by legal experts to empower you to complete Your Estate Plan easily, 100% online, and without $5,000+ attorney fees. If you prefer, you can always choose to review your completed plan with an attorney later — but it's not necessary to make your plan legally effective.

Question 6

How do I "fund" my trust once I create it?

Accepted Answer

After signing, you'll need to transfer ownership of certain assets into your Trust. We provide a simple Funding Guide that explains how to update real estate titles, how to retitle bank and investment accounts, and how to update beneficiaries on insurance policies and retirement accounts. Funding your Trust is essential to avoid probate — and we make it easy.

Question 7

What if I need to make changes later?

Accepted Answer

Life changes — and your estate plan should too. At checkout, you'll have the option to add our Updates Option. This means you can update your estate plan up to 3 times in the future, at no extra cost — even after major life events like marriages, births, or buying a new home.

Question 8

Is my personal information secure?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. We use military-level encryption and SSL technology to protect all client data. Your information is never sold, rented, or shared.

Question 9

I'm not rich — do I still need an estate plan?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Estate planning isn't just for millionaires. It's for anyone who has children, owns a home or savings, wants to protect loved ones from court battles and high legal fees, or cares about who manages their finances and healthcare if something happens. Even a modest estate can be tied up in probate for years without the right plan.

Question 10

What if I already have a Will?

Accepted Answer

A Will alone doesn't avoid probate. It still requires your loved ones to go through court proceedings — often long, expensive, and public. A Revocable Living Trust, on the other hand, bypasses probate entirely (when funded correctly) and keeps your wishes private.

Question 11

How much money can creating a trust save my family?

Accepted Answer

On average, probate court costs 5–15% of your total estate. For example: a $200,000 estate runs roughly $10,000–$15,000 in probate costs; $400,000 runs about $20,000–$35,000; $750,000+ runs about $25,000–$75,000. Creating your trust today could save your family tens of thousands of dollars — not to mention emotional stress, lack of privacy, and legal delays.

Question 12

What happens if I don't do this?

Accepted Answer

If you pass away without a properly executed estate plan: your family must go to probate court (even if you have a Will); the process can take 12–24 months; legal fees can consume 5–15% of your estate; and a judge — not you — decides who manages your assets and who raises your kids. The earlier you plan, the easier and cheaper it is to protect your family.
