Common questions

How much does this cost?

$995 one-time to create your full plan, then $99/year to keep your documents current. The survey is free and there's no credit card to start — you only pay when you're ready to sign with the notary. An attorney typically charges $3,000–$5,000 for the same documents.

How long does this take?

About 30 minutes. The survey walks you through your family, beneficiaries, and assets one question at a time. No legal jargon, no forms to print, no attorney appointments. Most families finish in a single sitting on a phone or laptop.

Is this legally valid in California and Texas?

Yes. Every document is built to meet California and Texas trust law and is signed with a licensed online notary — the same notary process attorneys use, just done from your couch. Your trust, will, power of attorney, and healthcare directive are legally binding the moment you sign.

What's included in my estate plan?

A complete package: a living trust, a pour-over will, financial power of attorney, healthcare directive, and a property deed prepared for filing if you're transferring a home into the trust. Everything your family needs in one place — not just a will.

Can I update my plan as life changes?

Yes — and we encourage it. Beneficiaries, trustees, guardians, and assets can all be updated anytime from your dashboard. New child, new home, new marriage? Open Mantle, make the change, re-sign. Updates are included with your $99/year plan, which renews annually to keep your documents current.

Why not just write a will?

A will alone doesn't avoid probate — that's the multi-month, multi-thousand-dollar court process your family goes through to inherit anything. A living trust skips probate entirely, keeps your estate private, and lets your family take over assets in days, not months. That's why Mantle starts with a trust and includes a pour-over will to back it up.

What if I change my mind?

The survey is completely free — stop anytime, no charge, no credit card on file. Before you pay, you'll review a full summary of your plan: who your trustees and beneficiaries are, what each document does, and exactly what's included. You only pay when you're ready to generate and sign your documents. Because your documents are created and made downloadable immediately at payment, purchases can't be refunded once your plan is generated.
