Some A's for your Q's
Most frequent questions and answers
Yes, we are! Both Julia and Kathrine graduated from Rutgers University, School of Law in 2013. Funny enough, they were in the same class, but didn’t meet until two years after law school at a networking event. Go Raptors!
Yes, we do! We have three standard payment options: (1) all up front, (2) over 6 months, (3) over 12 months. We also have a “Make us an offer” payment plan option, but you’ve really got to convince us that we should deviate from our standard offerings.
We love your eagerness and we want you to start now, too, however because we’re attorneys and we’ll be working with you one on one, we need to make sure that we want to work together.
We also have to do something called a “conflicts check,” which means that we have to make sure that when we work with you, we won’t be hurting any of our previous clients.
We do not offer refunds because we do not receive payment until the work is performed. Attorneys are not like contractors. We have to have something called a “trust account,” which is where we keep all the money that we haven’t earned yet. This means that you will only ever be paying us for work that we’ve completed, or it goes into the trust account. Our Giving Forward Plans are valued and paid in increments such that you will be always be paying for service as it’s received.
We work with planners in New Jersey and Pennsylvania.
“two months of studying + two day exam”
’nuff said.
We do have relationships with attorneys in other states, so we might be able to recommend an attorney to assist you with creating your Last Will and Testament.
You can create either a Last Will and Testament or a Revocable Living Trust with the Giving Forward Program. While we will make suggestions and recommendations, the choice is up to you in how you protect your family.
