first responder estate plan

You Plan for Every Emergency. Don’t Skip This One.

You run toward the situations most people run from. But what happens to your family if you don't come home — or can't work?

This package is designed to ensure your family, assets, and benefits are protected if the unexpected happens.

Responder estate planning

A Trust Built For the Realities of Your Profession

Police officers, firefighters, paramedics, and other emergency professionalslive with a level of risk that most estate plans never account for.

The First Responder Estate Plan goes deeper and is structured around your income,your benefits, your risk exposure, and your family's specific situation.

The S.T.E.P.™ Way:
Benefit icon

Your pension and survivor benefits are structured so your family knows exactly what they're entitled to and how to access it.

Spouse protection icon

Your spouse has a clear plan of action: who to call, what to access, and how to navigate your benefits if you're injured or don't come home.

Stability icon

Your children are protected and your assets are structured so your family's financial stability doesn't disappear with your paycheck.

Standard estate planning

If You Walk Into Risk Every Shift, Your Family Deserves a Plan That Reflects That

Where standard wills often leave gaps when it comes to managing pensions, benefits, real estate, and family responsibilities, the First Responder Estate Plan is designed to address those realities.

This plan is best for those:

Working in Fire, EMS, or Law Enforcement

With a spouse or family who depends entirely or primarily on their income

With a pension, 401K, or union benefits that need to be properly structured

Who haven't walked their spouse through what happens if they're injured, disabled, or killed in the line of duty

Complete protection for your loved ones for $3,649 USD.

Don’t Risk Your Family’s Security

Disability icon

A disability doesn't leave your family unprotected

When a first responder is hurt on the job, workers' comp doesn't just pay out. The default position is denial, and the burden of proof falls on you. Your trust ensures your family has financial structure and asset access in place before that process plays out.

Children icon

Your children are provided for
no matter what

Without a trust, no one has legally designated authority over your assets or your children's care if something happens to both parents. Your First Responder Estate Plan names guardians, structures inheritance terms, and ensures your kids are cared for on your terms.

Income gap icon

Your income gap has a plan behind it

First responders retire earlier than most, and many carry families on a single income. If that income stops suddenly, the financial impact is immediate. Your trust structures asset access and continuity so your family isn't scrambling when the worst happens.

Vault icon

Your family has answers before they need them

The hardest calls your spouse will ever make shouldn't also be the most confusing. Your plan is documented, organized, and stored securely in your personal digital vault through Wealth.com, so the people you're protecting can actually access it the moment they need it.
