Estate Planning Process

The estate planning process at Citadel Law Firm follow the steps below:

1. You contact our office and schedule a free estate planning consultation. You also will have the option to attend one of our Estate Planning Chandler seminars beforehand if you prefer, and later schedule your free consultation. The estate planning seminar will help you to understand the estate planning options better. The consultation is designed to go over the specific estate planning needs of your family.
2. After you attend your consultation and you decide to work with us we will schedule your next appointment to do the drafting for your estate planning. We will go over in even more details about all the particularities of your family. A few subjects that we usually address when we do your estate planning are:
   • Do you have any special needs in your family?
   • Are you concern about long-term care and the cost of nursing home?
   • Do you have any issues of substance abuse in your family?
   • Are you trying to protect any assets from irresponsible behavior for the younger generations?
   • Are you afraid of becoming incapacitate and have someone take care of you?
   • Do you have any concerns about probate? Are you trying to avoid probate all together?
3. After the drafting meeting we will schedule a third meeting to go over all the documents that we prepared for you in details and have them all signed. That meeting should bring you peace of mind.  You will know that all your estate planning needs will be taken care of by a competent estate planning lawyer.

Depending of the type of estate planning that we prepare for you may or may not need additional guidance. We usually recommend reviewing your estate planning every three years. You don't have to worry about it though, Citadel Law attorneys usually contact you after three years to see if any changes happened that will require doing changes in your estate planning documents. You are welcome to contact us at any time as well in case you have questions or need to revise your estate planning.

All our estate planning services are done on a flat fee basis. We believe that having a flat fee structure incentives the communication between client and attorney, we reflects in to a better customer experience.
