Online trust services cost $30-$600 upfront compared to $3,760-$5,640 for an attorney in Arizona. However, total cost depends on subscription fees, amendment charges, and life event updates over time. This calculator projects the full cost across providers.

Only assets not transferred into the trust go through probate. Common oversights include bank accounts, vehicles, and real estate that were never retitled to the trust. A pour-over will catches these assets and directs them into the trust through probate, but proper funding avoids that step entirely.

Many online trust services charge annual subscription fees ranging from $0 to $240/year. These may include document access, minor amendments, or attorney consultations. Attorney amendments in Arizona cost $376 to $752 for simple changes and $1,504 to $3,008 for major updates like divorce or remarriage.

The decision depends on estate size, asset types, family situation, and Arizona probate costs. Trusts provide probate avoidance, privacy, and faster asset transfer but cost more upfront than a will. The Arizona trust needs assessment compares the two approaches.
