You have minor children
A will is the only place you can legally nominate a guardian. Without one, a Colorado judge picks from a list that may not include the person you'd choose.

A will that does what you actually intend.
A Last Will and Testament is the most familiar estate planning document, and one most often misunderstood. We draft yours so it names the right guardians and beneficiaries, protects the right people, and gives the probate court instructions it can actually follow.
Who This Is For
A will isn’t optional. It’s the floor.
Whether or not you also need a trust, almost every adult should have a will. These are the situations where it matters most.
You own assets in your name alone
Anything titled solely to you, without a beneficiary or joint owner, needs a will to tell the probate court where it goes. Otherwise the statutes decide.
Your wishes don't match the default
Colorado intestacy law splits things by blood relation. If you want to favor a charity, a stepchild, or a friend, that has to be in writing.
You already have a trust
You still need a pour-over will to catch anything you forgot to title into the trust. It's the safety net behind the safety net.
You want the simplest plan possible
Not every estate needs a trust. For straightforward situations, a well-drafted will plus the right beneficiary designations is the right answer, and we'll tell you when that's true.
Not sure if a will is enough?
A consultation will tell you whether a will alone fits your situation, or whether you need a trust on top of it.
Book a Call How a Will Comes Together
Four steps. Two meetings. One signed will.
Most clients have a finished, signed will often within a month, and when something is genuinely time-sensitive, we can move as fast as two weeks. We work at your pace; we just don’t let things drift.
01
The conversation
We start with what you actually own and who's actually in your life: kids, parents, partners, dependents. Most of the wisdom in a good will comes from this conversation, not the drafting.
02
Drafting your will
We prepare the will plus the supporting documents most people need alongside it: a financial power of attorney, a medical power of attorney, a healthcare directive, and other accompanying documents.
03
Review together
We walk through every clause line by line in plain English. You leave knowing what each paragraph does and why it's there. Edits and questions are expected.
04
Signing, witnesses, and storage
Final signing happens in our office with the witnesses and notary required by Colorado law. We give you the original, store a digital copy, and you're done.
What It Costs
A fixed fee. Quoted upfront.
Whether a will stands alone or sits inside a broader estate plan, scope drives the work. We only quote a fixed fee once we understand your goals, never from a generic range on a webpage.
Includes drafting, the review meeting, and the signing meeting.
You’ll receive a transparent fixed-fee quote at the conclusion of your free consultation, tailored to your matter, before any engagement begins.
