Estate planning packages

Essential Will Package

You do not need to spend thousands of dollars or weeks meeting with an attorney to protect your family. A last will and testament with beneficiary designations, your personal representative appointed, and an optional personal property memorandum, completed online from an attorney's Florida templates, at one clear price.

A properly drafted Florida will that addresses only what you need, and nothing you don't.

$350single
$580married

Married pricing covers both spouses: two full sets of documents, for less than two single plans.

What a will decides

Without a will, Florida intestacy law decides who inherits and in what shares. That formula does not know about a blended family, a stepchild you raised, a sibling who needs help, or the fact that you and your partner keep separate accounts.

A will also lets you name the person who administers your estate rather than leaving the court to pick, and it is where a guardianship nomination for minor children belongs.

When the Essential Will is the right starting point

This is the plan for people whose first priority is simply having a valid will in place. If you also want someone able to act on your finances or healthcare while you are alive, the Power 5 package adds those documents for less than buying them separately.

How you get it done

You answer plain-English questions online, at whatever hour suits you. Your documents are assembled from templates a Florida estate planning attorney wrote and keeps current. Then you sign, with witnessing and notarization handled online where Florida law allows it, and your documents are stored where your family can find them. If you want an attorney to look at your plan or handle it for you, that is available separately.

What's included

  • Last Will and Testament
  • Beneficiary designations
  • Personal Representative appointment
  • Optional Personal Property Memorandum
  • Attorney-written Florida templates

What it does not cover

  • Powers of attorney: a will has no effect while you are alive
  • Healthcare documents or a HIPAA release
  • Probate avoidance: a will goes through probate

Is this you?

If none of these quite fit, that is worth a conversation rather than a guess.

  • Young families who recently had a child
  • Parents whose children are now adults
  • Anyone going through a major life change: a marriage, a divorce, a move, a new home
  • Older adults who have put planning off
  • Households who want a proper will without the cost and time of the traditional process

Essential Will, answered.

More general questions live on the questions page.

Does a will avoid probate?

No. A will directs how probate turns out; it does not skip it. Probate avoidance is what a revocable living trust is for.

What is a personal property memorandum?

A separate list of tangible items (jewelry, vehicles, collectibles, furniture, artwork) and who receives them. It is referenced by the will and can be updated without redrafting the will itself.

Should I add powers of attorney?

Most people should. The Power 5 package bundles the will with financial and healthcare powers of attorney, a living will and a HIPAA release for $650 single.
