Without a will, your family faces months of probate, thousands in legal fees, and zero say in who inherits.
The state decides where your assets go, who raises your children, and who makes your medical decisions — not you. A complete estate plan takes less than 20 minutes and costs a fraction of what you'd pay an attorney.

With a Plan vs.
Without a Plan
The consequences of doing nothing don't fall on you — they fall on your family. Here's exactly what's at stake.
| Your Question | ✓ With a Plan | ✗ Without a Plan |
|---|---|---|
| Who inherits your assets | ✓ The people you choose | ✗ State law decides (may exclude unmarried partners) |
| Who raises your children | ✓ Your named guardian | ✗ A judge decides — possibly a stranger to your family |
| Who makes medical decisions | ✓ Your appointed healthcare agent | ✗ Hospital or court default — may conflict with your wishes |
| Probate required | ✓ Avoidable with a trust | ✗ Mandatory — 6–18 months of court proceedings |
| Time to distribute assets | ✓ Days to weeks (with a trust) | ✗ 12–18 months average in probate |
| Attorney / court fees | ✓ Minimal — plan costs $100–$400 | ✗ $3,000–$15,000+ in probate fees and attorney costs |
| Privacy of your estate | ✓ Private — trust assets never enter public record | ✗ Public probate record — anyone can see what you owned |
| Can be updated | ✓ Yes — update anytime as life changes | ✗ Nothing to update — no plan exists |
| Recommendation | Start your plan today — takes 20 minutes | Every day without a plan is a risk to your family |
