There are three general ways attorneys charge for their services by the hour, percentage, and/or flat rate, and the pricing can vary depending on the experience and reputation of the attorney. Remember the old adage — you get what you pay for, this applies to hiring an attorney.
That said, I cannot tell you what a specific legal service should cost, but I can say this –if you need Estate Planning:
- You should hire a human.
- A human with a law degree.
- A human with a law degree in the state in which you reside.
- A human with a law degree in the state in which you reside that practices in the area of Estate Planning.
- If you have a complicated estate, that human may charge more than a non-human.
- It will be worth it in the long run —Estate Planning is a necessary investment.
The best referrals for these humans I describe above are from someone you know OR read some google reviews —the more the better!
