Traditional “estate planning”
just doesn’t cut it.

DIY will and trust sites and “cheap legal” services leave families with a big mess when a loved one becomes incapacitated or dies. Whether legal documents are poorly prepared or the best-in-class, they provide little guidance and care to the humans left behind after the death of a loved one.

As a result, families get stuck in court, lose track of valuable assets, or get mired in totally avoidable legal conflicts at a time when clarity, compassion, and guidance are what's needed most.

What’s missing from
traditional estate planning:

We're not cheap legal

Differentiation from
“cheap legal” services (whether lawyer-provided or DIY online).

Traditional Estate Planning practices are in a race-to-the-bottom with online DIY services. They both offer the same solutions with the same mediocre outcomes.

PFL's create outcomes
Energy2@2x

Reliable outcomes.

Most DIY or documents-only estate plans fail because they fall out of date quickly - assets change, life changes, and the law changes — but the documents don’t.  
And they almost never include a comprehensive inventory or “map” of assets — which is why there is $58B of lost and unclaimed assets and property in States’ control across the US.
Finally, DIY and cheap legal plans don’t account for intangible assets — intellectual, spiritual and human assets, which are the assets families care about most.
Learn to price effectively
Energy3@2x

Ability to price effectively.

Because traditional estate planning is often experienced as a "commodity” service that can be shopped for and purchased at lowest cost, most lawyers struggle to charge the fees they deserve and need to run a healthy practice. And those who are charging enough often having a sneaking suspicion that they aren’t really delivering value.
Luckily, Life & Legacy can solve both of these problems by providing a service that is truly valuable, cannot be commoditized, and allows you to charge enough to support a healthy, thriving business model.
Go beyond document templates
Energy4@2x

Over-dependency on template documents.

Documents alone, no matter how good they are, will not guide people to the right legal and financial choices for themselves, and the people they love. And, that binder on the shelf won’t be there to support family after the death of a loved one. It takes the guidance and care of trusted legal counsel to support a family through a lifetime of wise decision-making, and beyond.

Life & Legacy Planning is the heart suit
of being a Personal Family Lawyer. 

Become a trusted guide for the people in your community, and help them make a lifetime of wise legal and financial decisions.

As a Personal Family Lawyer®, you’ll help your clients build generational wealth, life and legacy in a way that reconnects you to why you became a lawyer in the first place.
