Pricing

Start free. Add help only when it is useful.

Free starting help remains available before payment or professional contact. Paid options should clearly explain the scope, deliverable, timing, and what is not included.

Free core public path

Start, organize, search, and prepare without charge.

Issue routing, plain-language information, official-resource navigation, attorney and firm search, basic Document Help, questions and unknowns, checklists, correction/removal, privacy, deletion, and recovery remain free.

High-cost continuation

No surprise AI, OCR, processing, or storage charge.

A reasonable free allowance and an optional cost-recovery price may be added only after exact vendor economics, privacy, security, consent, receipt, failure/refund, spending-cap, and owner-activation acceptance. No such charge is active now.

Free fallback

Useful next steps remain available when a paid provider is absent.

Deterministic Matter Path, official sources, search, Document Help, questions export, checklists, support, and recovery do not depend on external AI.

One central Smarter Justice commercial relationship.

Individual attorney$15/month

Review professional membership boundaries

Professional profile and plan clarity

Public-source profiles stay free; paid tools begin only after a professional or authorized firm representative chooses them.

Free public-source listing

Unclaimed profiles may show sourced public facts, correction options, and neutral search visibility. This does not mean the professional participates in Estate Law Aid.

Claimed profile tools

After identity, authority, credential, terms, and correction review, a professional can manage profile details and request eligibility for appropriate inquiry tools.

Firm and team tools

Firm plans can support multiple professionals, offices, profile updates, inquiry tracking, and response management after owner approval and required safeguards.

No hidden ranking promise: Paid status must not imply endorsement, better skill, guaranteed clients, guaranteed inquiries, or a professional-client relationship. Organic search remains neutral and source-based.

Before any payment

A paid option should make the scope, deliverable, timing, and limits easy to understand.

What is included

The selected organizer, draft, checklist, package, or review step should be named before checkout.

What is separate

Attorney fees, court fees, filing fees, notary costs, tax help, vendor costs, and asset-transfer costs stay separate unless a written scope says otherwise.

What happens next

Users should see the next form, saved workspace, document request, support path, and review status.

What is not promised

Payment does not mean a document is final, filed, funded, transferred, notarized, attorney-approved, or safe to sign.

Clear value before checkout

Every paid step should explain the deliverable, boundary, and next action.

Free start first

Use the free starting tools to understand the situation before choosing a paid option.

Defined deliverable

Paid platform help should identify the organizer, draft, checklist, package, or review step being purchased.

Separate fees stay separate

Attorney fees, court fees, notary costs, filing costs, tax help, trust-funding costs, and third-party charges are separate unless a written scope says otherwise.

Important fee separation

Platform fees, attorney legal fees, court fees, notary costs, tax-professional fees, filing fees, trust-funding costs, and asset-transfer costs are separate unless a written scope says otherwise. A successful payment does not make a document final, filed, signed, funded, transferred, or safe to rely on.

Clear scope before payment

Each paid option should explain the deliverable, review level, timing, and what is separate.

Platform service fee

Covers the selected Estate Law Aid workspace, organization, draft, checklist, or review-preparation service.

Attorney fees are separate

Legal advice or representation requires conflict review, scope, terms, attorney acceptance, and separate fee arrangements.

Outside costs are separate

Court, notary, tax, recording, filing, trust-funding, and asset-transfer costs are not included unless expressly stated.

A better checkout decision

Choose a paid step only after you know the next deliverable.

Free first

Use the free start to understand whether this is planning, an update, probate, executor help, or professional search.

Clear deliverable

Before payment, the page should name the organizer, draft, checklist, package, or review-preparation task being purchased.

Separate legal services

Attorney advice and representation require separate conflict review, terms, attorney acceptance, and fee arrangements.
