A Refreshingly Unique
Approach to Pricing
Most law firms are unwilling to offer pricing information upfront. They will require you to sit through an initial consultation (and potentially even pay for it) before disclosing the overall cost for a Living Trust, Will, and other estate planning documents needed for your situation. Even worse, some firms will bill you hourly for all time spent on your behalf with no guarantee of what the total costs will be.
We disagree with that approach and believe that you deserve a clear outline of your available options and the associated fees.
The following information pertains to the cost to set up a Trust in California, as the vast majority of our clients go with a Revocable Living Trust for reasons stated elsewhere on this website.
