Estate Planning System

Get a Free Trial

The Estate Planning System is more than just a different way to create documents. It is a system that focuses on the special circumstances of the middle class, while streamlining your law firm to be more profitable and ensuring that none of the details are forgotten.

Middle Class Tax Planning
The EPS handles tax planning for your clients with up to 10 million in assets. The will and living trusts have provisions for disclaimer trusts, credit shelter trusts with Outright Marital Gifts and Q-TIP provisions, and GST options. The EPS also includes these advanced trusts; 2503© Trust, CRAT, CRUT, GRAT, QPRT, Life Insurance Trust, and a Conduit Trust.

Middle Class No-Tax Planning (The Not-So-Simple Will)
With the passing of the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001, fewer clients require tax based planning. However, there are many non-tax reasons for clients to plan. Certain non-tax situations dictate careful planning. Many clients come to a law firm without realizing that there are special circumstances that require more than a simple will. The EPS guides you through the process of helping your clients see the additional value that you as the attorney provide through taking these situations into account:

  • Grandchildren
  • Blended Families
  • Bloodline Trusts
  • Special Needs Trusts
  • Non-Citizen Spouses
  • Business Owners
  • Charities
  • Vacation Homes
  • And More . . .

The Simple Will
We know that not everyone needs to have a Not-So-Simple Will, so we have developed the EPS to handle the simple will with ease. The EPS has a Scenario Builder© which is designed for you to create predefined defaults for your various client situations. This allows you to use the same will as your other clients, but eliminate the need to complete the entire HotDocs© interview. This feature allows you to create documents quickly, accurately, and ensures that you are profitable with every client situation.

The EPS provides you with the best quality estate planning - every time.

Wolters Kluwer, the international parent company of Loislaw, has recently made a significant investment in Loislaw, providing us with some key product advantages. We have also doubled our sales and support staff.

We are particularly strong now in primary law. Our search engine has a similar search syntax to – and is as powerful as - that of Lexis or Westlaw. But there’s a difference: it has a far cleaner look and is simpler to use.

To this end we would like to introduce ourselves as your new account team. Feel free to contact me with any questions you may have. Besides being the simplest-to-use system in the market today, we’re easily more affordable than Lexis or Westlaw (typically 40-50% less), and offer a true flat rate fee service, with no hidden charges ever.

  • Aspen Treatise Libraries
  • Personal Public Records
  • UCC Filings and Corporate Public Records
  • Loislaw Information Advantage -- a Legal News & Business Information database, edited for quick access to important legal and financial news.
