Estate Planning Fees — DSR Legal

Estate Planning  ·  Flat-Fee Plans

Three ways to protect what you’ve built

Each plan builds on the one before it — start with the essentials for incapacity, or go all the way to a trust that keeps your family out of probate. Every plan is a flat fee, agreed up front.

Bespoke Planning

Specialized planning, quoted to your circumstances

Some goals call for drafting well beyond a standard plan. These are boutique engagements — each one is built around your specific family, assets, and objectives, so fees are set case by case based on the drafting your plan requires.

Estate Tax Planning

For estates large enough to face estate tax, we structure your plan — using tools such as marital and credit-shelter trusts, lifetime gifting, and irrevocable trusts — so more of what you’ve built passes to the people you choose, and less to taxes.

Fees by consultation

Medicaid Asset Protection Trusts

Long-term care can quickly consume a lifetime of savings. When planning is done well ahead of need, a properly structured irrevocable trust can protect your assets while preserving eligibility for Medicaid benefits.

Fees by consultation

Special Needs Planning

An inheritance can unintentionally disqualify a loved one from needs-based benefits like SSI or Medicaid. A special needs trust lets you provide for them without putting the benefits they rely on at risk.

Fees by consultation

Because each of these plans is drafted to the specifics of your situation, fees are determined case by case, based on the drafting each one requires. As with our standard plans, you’ll receive a flat quote after your consultation — before any work begins.

Couple plans include a complete set of documents for each spouse. Fees are flat and quoted in your consultation before any work begins.
