RocketLawyer has helped over 20M businesses, families, and individuals with legal services. RocketLawyer is a subscription service, covering a wide array of legal matters, extending far beyond estate settlement. If you like having a legal service on retainer, you can keep it, and pay just $39.99 per month from then on, using the service as new matters (according to RocketLawyer's definition) arise. Or you can cancel whenever you want.
In addition, if you like working with your assigned lawyer, you can choose to work directly with him or her from that point onward, retaining him or her directly, at a significant discount to his or her normal hourly rates.
