What We Offer
Estate Planning and Probate Services, Delivered to You
Every service is performed by a licensed Missouri attorney at a location of your choosing — home, office, hospital, or anywhere convenient. Flat upfront fees. No surprises.
Wills & Trusts
Fee
Simple Will: $400 / $700 couple · Revocable Living Trust: $2,000 individual / $4,000 couple (includes pour-over will & deeds)
A last will and testament ensures your wishes are honored and your loved ones are protected. A revocable living trust can help your estate avoid probate entirely, keeping your affairs private and your family out of court. We prepare both — tailored to your family's specific situation — and execute them on the spot at your location.
Includes
- Simple Will
- Pour-Over Will (with Trust)
- Revocable Living Trust
- Testamentary Trust
Powers of Attorney
Fee
Individual POA: $300 · Financial & Healthcare Package: $500
A durable financial power of attorney authorizes a trusted person to manage your finances if you become incapacitated. A healthcare power of attorney designates who can make medical decisions on your behalf. Both are essential components of any complete estate plan.
Includes
- Durable Financial Power of Attorney — $300
- Healthcare Power of Attorney — $300
- Financial & Healthcare Package — $500
