Not a fit if

Business owners, multi-property estates, blended families, or beneficiaries with special needs โ€” those need the Legacy Trust or Continuum Counsel.

Sold separately

Incapacity instruments (Statutory Durable POA, Medical POA, Directive, HIPAA) are in the Essentials Bundle ($797) โ€” purchase together for full lifetime coverage. Business interests, digital assets, and special-needs sub-trust provisions are in the Legacy Trust.

When the form stops fitting,
we have a conversation.
