Hawthorne Legacy Advisors is a self-help document service, not a law firm
Hawthorne Legacy Advisors is a self-help document-preparation service. We are not a law firm, we are not a substitute for the advice of an attorney, and we cannot provide legal advice. Our online platform prepares standardized Arizona estate-planning documents based on the information and selections you provide.
We do not review your information for legal sufficiency, do not apply the law to your individual circumstances, and do not tell you which documents or options are right for your specific situation. When you use our standard process, you are representing yourself in preparing your own documents. If you want legal advice, or you want a lawyer to review your documents, you should consult a licensed attorney.
Because we are not a law firm, your communications with Hawthorne Legacy Advisors are not protected by the attorney-client privilege and are not subject to the confidentiality rules that govern lawyers.
Optional attorney review and referrals to Edward Law Firm
Optional attorney review is available as a separate, paid service, and any situation that falls outside Hawthorne Legacy Advisors’s standard process may be referred to Edward Law Firm, PLLC, an independent Arizona law firm whose principal attorney is E. Jonathon Scibilia, a member of the State Bar of Arizona. Edward Law Firm is separate from Hawthorne Legacy Advisors.
You have an attorney-client relationship only if and when you separately engage Edward Law Firm under a written engagement agreement. Only then are your communications with the firm privileged and confidential. Using Hawthorne Legacy Advisors’s document service, by itself, does not create an attorney-client relationship with anyone.
No Legal Advice
The content of this website, the intake questions, and the prepared documents are for general informational and self-help purposes only and do not constitute legal advice. Estate planning has real legal consequences. If you are unsure whether the standard documents fit your situation, consult a licensed attorney before relying on them.
Jurisdiction
Edward Law Firm provides legal services only in jurisdictions where its attorneys are admitted to practice. As of the “Last updated” date above, that means the State of Arizona, through E. Jonathon Scibilia, a member of the State Bar of Arizona. We do not advertise the availability of legal services in any jurisdiction in which we are not licensed.
Hawthorne Legacy Advisors is designed to scale to other states over time. When and if Edward Law Firm expands or partners with additional licensed firms, each state will be served by a separately licensed local attorney, and this disclaimer will be updated accordingly. Forward-looking statements on the site about other states reflect plans, not current legal capacity.
No Guarantee of Outcome
Past results do not guarantee future outcomes. Every estate planning matter is unique, and the outcome of any matter depends on its specific facts, the applicable law at the time, and a variety of factors that cannot be predicted.
Pricing
Prices published on this site are the flat fees Edward Law Firm charges for the documents identified, assuming standard scenarios. Out-of-state property, business interests, blended-family planning, special-needs trust planning, and other complex situations may price differently. Pass-through costs (such as county recording fees for deeds) are not included in published prices and are billed separately at cost. Quoted prices are honored for 30 days from the date of consultation. Prices subject to change.
Scope of Hawthorne Legacy Advisors’s process
Hawthorne Legacy Advisors’s guided process is intended for straightforward Arizona estate-planning and probate-avoidance goals only, using a standard set of documents (revocable living trust, pour-over will, powers of attorney, healthcare documents, certificate of trust, and beneficiary-deed assistance where applicable). It is not designed for tax planning, asset protection, Medicaid or long-term-care planning, special-needs planning, business or business-succession planning, blended-family or contested-family planning, disinheritance, out-of-state property, creditor or litigation concerns, or unusually large or complex estates.
If your intake responses indicate a situation outside that standard process, the site will tell you so and recommend that you speak with an attorney. If your situation appears to involve issues outside Hawthorne's standard process, you may be referred to Edward Law Firm, PLLC for separate legal services and attorney review. This is to make sure matters that need individualized legal advice get it, rather than being squeezed into a standardized package.
