Without a plan, the average family loses
over $50,000, and that's the ones who avoid probate.
Court fees, attorney fees, months of delays, assets distributed to the wrong people at the wrong time. The reason it hasn't happened isn't carelessness: every option felt too expensive, too complicated, or impossible to finish. GuardTies removes those barriers.

The real hesitations,
answered directly.
Not hand-picked softballs. The questions that keep people from protecting their families.
Within 24 hours of checkout you receive a download link to your complete 400+ page package (the trust, companion guides, essential documents and organizer tools) in both editable Word (.docx) and fillable PDF, organized across 7 sections and ready to open.
Start with Section 1, the needs assessment questionnaire. It takes about 5 minutes and tells you exactly which documents apply to your situation. Most buyers complete their full estate plan in a single focused weekend, or spread it across 30 days at your own pace. Either way, you'll know when you're done.
A will tells people what you want after you die, but it goes through probate court, which is public, slow (9–18 months), and expensive. A revocable living trust does the same job but bypasses probate entirely: assets transfer directly to your beneficiaries, privately, within days.
The short answer: for most families, yes, you need both. A pour-over will catches anything you didn't transfer into your trust during your lifetime; your trust handles the rest. If your estate is genuinely simple (no real estate, no children under 18, minimal assets) a will alone may be enough. But the cost of creating a trust you didn't strictly need is small. The cost of not having one when your family needs it is not.
For the large majority of families, yes. GuardTies gives you the same structure, clauses, and execution requirements an attorney would draft, guided step by step, so you never have to book that appointment or pay by the hour.
Where it doesn't replace an attorney: genuinely complex situations, contested guardianship, multi-state business succession, or estates near the federal estate tax exemption. GuardTies is a complete legal template product, not personalized legal advice. If your situation is unusually complex, use it as your foundation and bring in a specialist only where you actually need one. Most people never do.
Yes, completely. A revocable living trust can be changed, updated, or revoked at any time while you are alive and have legal capacity. Got divorced? Had another child? Bought a new property? Changed your mind about a beneficiary? You update it using the trust amendment form included in your package.
An irrevocable trust is different: once created, it generally cannot be changed. GuardTies provides revocable trusts, which is the right choice for the overwhelming majority of families. You are never locked in.
Yes. Every document is professionally drafted using the same structural clauses, notary blocks, witness signature sections, and execution language used in attorney-prepared estate plans. Plain-English guidance notes inside each document explain what every section means.
Legal validity in practice depends on correct execution: signing, witnessing, and notarization. Your package includes a 50-state notary and witness guide that gives you the exact execution requirements for your state.
Yes. Every document includes plain-English guidance notes explaining what each section means. The needs assessment tells you which documents apply before you start. The 50-state notary guide tells you exactly how to execute them. You need Microsoft Word and the ability to answer questions about your own life. That is the entire technical requirement.
Life changes, and your plan should keep up. Your package includes a trust amendment form so you can update without rewriting everything, and an annual review checklist that prompts you to revisit after major life events: marriage, divorce, new children, new property, retirement.
Your plan covers them. Pets are legally treated as property, which means that without instructions they pass along with the rest of your belongings, and who ends up caring for them is left to chance at the worst possible moment.
Your package includes pet care provisions so you can name the person you want to take them, and record how you want them looked after.
The average estate attorney charges $3,500–$10,000+ for a comparable document set, and that doesn't include the estate tax strategy, lifetime beneficiary protections, or generational planning documents included here. The average one-hour attorney consultation alone costs $250–$400.
You're receiving the complete 400+ page GuardTies package available as an instant download, for the price of roughly one to two hours of attorney time. With a 30-day money-back guarantee, the risk is zero.
Yes. A state considerations flag sheet is included: it identifies every clause that may vary by state and tells you precisely what to verify locally. The 50-state notary and witness guide covers execution requirements for your specific state.
Most core estate planning documents follow a consistent framework across the United States. Where states differ (witness requirements, notary language, community property rules, POA statutes) your package covers it.
Your family deserves better than
