Book a Call with Dana Ware
Estate planning should feel like a conversation, not a transaction.
Whether you are just starting to think about protecting your family or are ready to move forward with a trust or estate plan, this is where we begin. I offer two ways to connect — a free introductory call to get acquainted, and a paid consultation for clients who are ready to dig into the details.
Free Introductory Call - 15 Minutes - No Charge
Not sure where to start? That is completely normal. This brief call gives us a chance to get acquainted, talk through what is on your mind, and see whether working together makes sense. There is no obligation and no pressure — just a straightforward conversation.
This call is a good fit if you:
- Are new to estate planning and want to understand your options
- Have had a life change — marriage, children, a death in the family, a new home — and are not sure what you need
- Want to know what working with me looks like before committing
Online Consultation (via Zoom)- 60 Minutes - $300
Ready to get into the details? This is a substantive working session via Zoom video conference call, where we walk through your specific situation, your family, your assets, and your goals, and I give you real, practical guidance on what makes sense for you.
This consultation is a good fit if you:
- Want to understand the difference between a will and a trust — and which is right for your family
- Are ready to put a plan in place and want to know exactly what that looks like
- Have an existing plan that needs to be updated
- Own real property and want to understand your options for passing it to your family
Payment of the $300 consultation fee does not establish an attorney-client relationship. No such relationship will be formed unless a written engagement letter is signed by both parties. All information shared during this consultation will be held in confidence in accordance with the New York Rules of Professional Conduct.
