The Estate Planning Checkup

Your plan isn't something you set up once and forget. Over the years your family changes, your assets change, and the laws change right along with them — and a plan that fit your life perfectly five or ten years ago can quietly drift out of step. You usually don't find out until it's too late to fix.

In this webinar, we give your estate plan a full checkup. Think of it as a physical for your plan: we'll walk through the "vital signs" that matter most — your trust, your beneficiary designations, your powers of attorney, and how your assets are actually owned — and show you how to tell whether they still work together the way you intended.

Every checkup answers two questions: Does my plan still reflect what I want today? And will my assets actually follow that plan if I become incapacitated or pass away?

Restating my existing Revocable Living Trust was a five-star experience.

Restating my existing Revocable Living Trust was a five-star experience. Their professionalism, knowledge and guidance of what I needed to update my trust was a huge aid to help me make the right decisions for my trust. They were remarkably quick to respond to any questions I had.

It was a very easy process online with them to make the updates and complete the restated trust in only a couple of online meetings! Knowing now how easy this process is, there is no reason for anyone to put off creating a trust for their family. S.T.E.P. truly is what it says, they are specialized in assisting people who need this service but have no idea of how to get started.

I had an excellent experience with S.T.E.P. (Specialized Trust & Estate Plan)

Jon and his team are knowledgeable, professional, and took the time to clearly explain the process. They made what could have been a complicated and overwhelming experience feel organized and manageable. Communication was consistent and timely, which gave us confidence throughout.

Jon truly cares about his clients and makes you feel like you are his top priority. I would highly recommend S.T.E.P. to anyone looking for reliable and trustworthy estate planning services.

Restating my existing Revocable Living Trust was a five-star experience.

With the updating of our wills, living trust, advanced directive, etc. as a part of our estate planning. This was increasingly necessary due to my wife's onset of multiple myeloma (blood cancer). Once the process engaged, it went very smoothly and our entire estate planning was put into place seamlessly, effectively, and very quickly.

We couldn't have been more pleased with the entire process. I would highly recommend this experience to all other people wishing to create or upgrade their plans.

I used Jon Sanchez S.T.E.P. services to restate my out-of-date trust.

My existing trust had been generated by a large attorney firm. The S.T.E.P. process uncovered several undesirable entries, previously unknown to me. Once restated, Mr. Sanchez patiently, articulately, and comprehensively reviewed, line-by-line, the restated trust with me. Just as important, I am receiving detailed guidance on correctly retitling every asset held in the trust. Unlike the trust generated from the attorney firm, I have complete confidence that the S.T.E.P. restated trust, and updated asset titling, achieves my intentions.
