Revocable Living Trust

From $1,200

A revocable living trust holds your assets during your lifetime and passes them to your beneficiaries on your death. No probate court hearing. Nothing on public record. No months-long wait like a will-only estate.

  • Attorney-drafted revocable living trust agreement
  • Certification of trust for banks and title companies
  • Pour-over will to catch assets not titled in the trust

Wills

From $500

A Last Will and Testament is the foundation of an estate plan. It names guardians for minor children, says who inherits what, and names the person who will administer your estate. Wills go through probate, but a clean attorney-drafted will makes that process predictable.

  • Attorney-drafted Last Will and Testament
  • Guardian nominations for minor children
  • Personal representative (executor) appointment

Powers of Attorney

From $250 each

Powers of attorney let a trusted person make decisions for you if you become incapacitated. Your finances, your healthcare, your general legal affairs. Without them, your family may need a court-appointed guardian to do basic things on your behalf.

  • Financial Power of Attorney (durable, Arizona-compliant)
  • Healthcare Power of Attorney (with HIPAA waiver)
  • General Durable Power of Attorney for broader legal and personal affairs

Healthcare Directives

From $250 each

Healthcare directives (sometimes called a living will or advance directive) record your wishes about end-of-life care, resuscitation, and life support. Paired with a Healthcare Power of Attorney, they give your family clarity and protect doctors from having to guess.

  • Healthcare Power of Attorney (designating your healthcare agent)
  • Living Will / Advance Directive (treatment preferences)
  • HIPAA Waiver (medical-record access for your agent)

Is this right for you?

Built for simple. Honest about the rest.

The standard package is for everyday families with straightforward wishes. Some situations need an attorney instead, and our intake will tell you when yours is one of them.

What you get

The standard Arizona probate-avoidance package.

The same core documents many Arizona families use to keep a home and accounts out of probate. Standardized and guided, not custom legal strategy.

  • Revocable living trust. The core document many Arizona families use to keep their home and accounts out of probate.
  • Pour-over will. Catches anything not titled into the trust and directs it there. Names guardians for minor children.
  • Financial power of attorney. Names who can manage your finances if you become unable to.
  • Healthcare power of attorney & living will. Names who makes medical decisions and records your care wishes.
  • Certificate of trust. The short proof of your trust that banks and title companies ask for.
  • Beneficiary deed assistance. For Arizona real estate, when applicable, to transfer property outside probate.

When you need an attorney

What this is not designed for.

Some situations need real legal advice and a custom plan. If any of these apply to you, the standard process is the wrong tool. And our intake will tell you so and point you to an attorney.

  • Blended families or multiple marriages
  • Business ownership or investment entities
  • Disabled or special-needs beneficiaries
  • Asset-protection planning
  • Medicaid or long-term-care planning
  • Significant tax concerns
  • Disinheriting a spouse, child, or family member
  • Out-of-state or multi-state real estate
  • Creditor concerns or pending litigation
  • Unusually large or complex estates
  • Contested or conflict family situations
  • Farm, ranch, or business succession

These are handled by independent attorneys at Edward Law Firm, PLLC, as separate legal services. Not sure which side you’re on?
