Fees and expenses for the consultation and for drafting a customized will and or a trust differ. Generally, a simple will costs $1,000-$1,500 whereas more complicated wills obviously can be double that amount. The comprehensive consultation and creation of a proper trust can cost as little as $3,500 or double that amount for a modest estate. Larger estates have many more nuances to consider and documents to draft. That estate planning work is billed at around $375 per hour.
