Why Choose Quill for Estate Planning?
Traditional estate planning with an attorney costs $3,000–$5,000 or more for a comprehensive plan. Many families delay or skip estate planning entirely because of the cost and complexity. Quill delivers the same expert-drafted documents at 95% less than traditional attorneys.
Our founder brings over 10 years of estate planning expertise to every document. Quill covers the full spectrum — from basic wills and trusts to sophisticated vehicles like GRATs, IDGTs, and QSBS trusts that are typically only available through high-end estate planning attorneys.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a revocable living trust?
A revocable living trust lets you transfer assets to your beneficiaries without probate — saving time, money, and keeping your estate private. If you own property, have dependents, or want to avoid the cost and delay of probate court, a revocable living trust is one of the most effective estate planning tools available. Quill helps you draft one at 95% less than a traditional attorney.
How much does estate planning cost?
Traditional estate planning with an attorney typically costs $3,000–$5,000 or more for a comprehensive plan including a will, trust, and powers of attorney. Quill offers expert-drafted estate planning documents at 95% less, built by a founder with over 10 years of estate planning experience.
Do I need a power of attorney?
A durable power of attorney designates someone you trust to manage your financial affairs if you become incapacitated. Without one, your family may need to go through an expensive and time-consuming court guardianship process. Every adult should have both a financial power of attorney and a healthcare power of attorney (or advanced healthcare directive). Quill drafts both as part of a comprehensive estate plan.
What is the difference between a will and a trust?
A will takes effect after death and must go through probate — a public court process that can take months and cost thousands. A revocable living trust takes effect immediately, avoids probate entirely, and keeps your estate private. Most comprehensive estate plans include both. Quill helps you determine which documents you need and drafts them at a fraction of the cost of a traditional attorney.
What estate planning documents do I need?
A comprehensive estate plan typically includes: a revocable living trust, a pour-over will, a durable financial power of attorney, an advanced healthcare directive, and beneficiary designations. For more complex situations — such as business ownership, significant assets, or tax optimization — advanced vehicles like GRATs, IDGTs, QSBS trusts, and charitable remainder trusts may be appropriate. Quill covers the full range, from basic to advanced planning.
What is an advanced healthcare directive?
An advanced healthcare directive (also called a living will) documents your medical treatment preferences if you cannot communicate them yourself. It typically includes a healthcare power of attorney designating someone to make medical decisions on your behalf, and specific instructions about life-sustaining treatment, organ donation, and end-of-life care. Quill drafts advanced healthcare directives as part of every comprehensive estate plan.
