After creation of a Trust, you must transfer your real estate into the Trust via deed. We can prepare and record the deeds for $275 per property, plus minor county recording fees. Proper titling is essential to achieve probate avoidance in trust-based plans.
Updates for new assets, life events, beneficiary changes, or law changes. We can advise when a simple amendment is enough vs. when a restatement is safer.

Pricing is Variable

The above pricing table is intentinaly over-simplified and may not reflect the actual dynamics of a legal matter. Additional requets for advice or services may arise. For this reason, pricing may be highly variable. Out-of-pocket costs (if any) are additional. If a legal matter becomes disputed at any point, fees transition to our Litigation Pricing Structure.

Obtain a Custom Fee Estimate

Generalized pricing is far less accurate than customized pricing. We need to discuss your situation and goal to formulate a more accurate initial fee estimate.

Estate Planning FAQs

What documents are included in a complete estate plan in Oklahoma?A complete plan typically includes:
 
-- Will (names your executor and, if needed, guardians for minors)

-- Standard estate planning end‑of‑life documents (General Power of Attorney, Medical Power of Attorney, Advance Directive)

-- Revocable Living Trust (for trust‑based plans that avoid probate when properly funded)

All of our plan levels include the standard end‑of‑life documents and include either a signing conference at our firm or attorney communications and instructions to help you coordinate a local signing.

Will vs. Revocable Living Trust — which should I choose to
avoid probate?
Will‑based plans are a bit simpler and lower cost, but they do not avoid probate. Trust-based plans are designed to avoid probate when properly funded (you retitle assets to the trust and update beneficiary designations). A Pour‑Over Will catches anything left outside the trust. An estate planning attorney will help you match the structure to your goals, timeline, and budget.

What’s the difference between a General Power of Attorney, Medical Power of Attorney, and Advance Directive?
A General Power of Attorney authorizes a trusted person to handle finances and legal matters if you’re unable. A Medical Power of Attorney appoints someone to make healthcare decisions if you cannot. Finally, an Advance Directive states your end‑of‑life treatment preferences so loved ones and physicians have clear guidance.

These standard estate planning end‑of‑life documents are included in all of our plan levels.

Can you do estate planning online or remotely, and how does signing work?Yes—document design, review, and revisions can be done remotely. Most jurisdictions require in‑person formalities for signing Wills (and some POA documents). Every plan includes either a signing conference at our firm OR attorney communications and instructions to help you coordinate a local signing with proper witnesses/notary.

How do I name a guardian for minor children and keep things smooth if something happens?You nominate guardians in your Will (and can list backups). We also align your plan with beneficiary designations so assets are managed until chosen ages. This reduces court intervention, preserves privacy, and provides a practical roadmap for your family.

What is trust funding, and why is it critical to avoiding probate?A Revocable Living Trust avoids probate only when funded. Funding means:

-- Retitling assets (e.g., deeds placing real estate in the trust — $250 per deed + recording fees)

-- Updating beneficiary designations (life insurance, retirement, POD/TOD accounts)

-- Coordinating bank/brokerage accounts
