1. Do I really need a trust if I already have a will?
A will only takes effect after death and still goes through probate. A revocable living trust lets your assets transfer privately, without court supervision, which is faster than probate and with fewer court costs.

2. When should I update my estate plan?
Review it every 3–5 years—or sooner if you marry, have a child, buy property, start a business, or move to another state. Michelle offers low‑cost “plan check‑ups” to keep everything current.

3. How much does an estate plan or business‐formation package cost?
Single‑individual estate plans start at $1,000 and estate plans for married or registered couples start at $1,500. Standard LLC formations start at $1,000 and standard corporation formations start at $1,500. You’ll receive a written, flat‑fee quote after your strategy session—no surprises.

4. Can a prenup handle big differences in what each partner owns?
Yes. A customized prenup can separate premarital property, outline future earnings, and even cover business equity, ensuring fairness no matter how unequal the starting point. Prenuptial Agreements start at $750. 

5. Can you help if I don’t live near your office?
Absolutely. Most legal work — consultations, document reviews, etc. — can be handled securely online. Michelle serves clients statewide and helps coordinate notaries wherever you are.

6. Is my information confidential during a consultation?
Always. Every conversation, draft, and email is protected by attorney–client privilege — even if you decide not to retain the firm.

7. Do you offer payment plans?
Yes. Contact the office for more information.
