Will Preparation Services
Welcome to the Ruben Law Firm Will Preparation and Estate Planning Division. Now more than ever it is imperative that you have an updated Last Will and Testament so that your loved ones are taken care of in the event of your untimely death.
A Last Will and Testament is perhaps the most important legal document a person will ever need. A Will is a document that, upon your death, controls who gets your property, who will be the guardian of your children and who will manage your estate. If you die without a Will then your estate is considered “intestate,” which means that the State, not you, decides how to distribute your property and who will take care of your children in the event that both parents die at the same time.

OUR ESTATE PLANNING PROCESS
At Ruben Law Firm our Wills and Estate Planning Attorneys know how busy life can be. We know that you have taken a big step just visiting the website and thinking about obtaining estate planning documents. Our goal is to make the process as convenient and affordable for you as possible. Our process consists of two meetings.
Step 1: FREE Consultation to learn about your needs
During the initial consultation, we will learn about you and your goals. This conversation will typically occur by phone, where one of our estate planning attorneys will discuss with you your objectives and preliminary options for achieving those goals. We will also provide a transparent fee for the options proposed.
Each client is unique; however, we can promise this: our fees will likely be lower than those of any other Wills and Estate Planning law firm in the area. We take pride in doing quality work at a reasonable cost.
Step 2: Initial planning meeting to create your individualized plan
Before your initial planning meeting, we will send you an intake form to review, complete, and bring with you. This form will guide our discussion and give you an idea of the information we’ll cover. During the meeting, our attorneys will collect the necessary details to prepare your documents. Afterward, they will finalize your documents and schedule a follow-up meeting for you to review and sign them. This meeting can happen in person or by zoom.
Step 3: Review and Will execution
At the final meeting, our attorneys will review the drafted documents with you to ensure your plan accurately reflects your wishes. Before you sign, we will make any necessary final adjustments. Once finalized, we will provide you with your original documents in an organized estate planning binder. If you prefer, we can deposit your original will with the Register of Wills for safekeeping. This service is complimentary, though a $5.00 fee per will, payable to the Register of Wills, will be required to cover their cost.
