This program includes the drafting and signing of wills, durable powers of attorney, health care proxies and HIPAA release forms. You’ll also create a joint revocable trust, a deed into a trust, a temporary delegation of parental powers (if you have children), and a declaration of homestead for a trust.
So far, we only do our Wills in a Week program for couples or individuals who do not have a taxable estate in Massachusetts (it must be under $2 million). You can determine if your estate has more than $2 million dollars by adding up the equity in your Massachusetts real estate, all your bank accounts, retirement accounts, investment accounts, and death benefits of life insurance policies.

“I attended the information session and found that not only did Wills in a Week meet my needs, but also had other estate planning elements I hadn't considered. The whole process was straightforward and cost-effective.”

“For what could have been a very daunting and expensive experience this was the opposite! Julie and her staff were quick to respond and helpful in their assessment to our needs. Highly recommend their ’Wills in a Week' program for anyone looking for cost effective and time efficient estate planning.”
Yes, you can take this course at your own pace. We just ask that you submit your “It’s Your Choice” form one week prior to your signing date.
If you're married, we encourage both spouses to participate. However, we understand the difficulty of this for families with children who need attention. One spouse can commit to moving through the program, but both spouses must attend in-person to sign the documents.
You will have access to the materials for as long as we keep running the program. If we ever decide to shut it down, we will provide you with advance notice.
You will have one live Q&A session with our founder, Julie, and you’ll be able to email her twice with questions. You can also schedule additional follow-up calls with Julie for a fee.
Unfortunately, yes. By law we need ink signatures in front of two witnesses and a notary. However, we make this very easy and convenient so it should only take 10-15 minutes and you can stay in your car to sign the paperwork.
Yes, for now we only work with clients based in Massachusetts.
