When you need Estate Planning 911

Life doesn’t always give you time to plan.

These are the situations Estate Planning 911 is built for. If any of these sound like you, call Allison directly or submit the form below.

Facing surgery

Surgery is scheduled and you don’t have estate planning documents in place. A power of attorney and advance directive make sure someone you trust can make decisions if you’re unable to — and your family isn’t left guessing.

Serious diagnosis

A new diagnosis changes everything — including how urgently you need documents in place. Allison works quickly to protect you and your family while you focus on what matters most: your health.

International travel

Heading abroad without documents means no one can access your accounts, make medical decisions, or handle emergencies back home on your behalf. Get covered before you leave.

Parent in a facility

A parent in a nursing home or long-term care facility without a power of attorney creates a legal crisis for the whole family. Allison can come to the facility to get documents executed — if your parent still has the capacity to sign.

Long overdue

You’ve been meaning to do this for years. Something just made it urgent — a friend’s experience, a news story, a close call. Whatever it was, you’re here now. Let’s get it done.

Family crisis

A sudden loss, a family emergency, a loved one declining. When your family needs documents now — not in six weeks — Estate Planning 911 is built for this moment.

Emergency packages

Two options. Both delivered in 48–72 hours.

Both packages include every essential document. The trust-based option gives your family the best chance to avoid probate entirely.

Will-based emergency plan
Basic protection in place fast. Your wishes are documented, someone is designated to act, and your family isn’t left guessing.
$3,500
48–72 hours
Last will and testament
Durable power of attorney
Living will / advance directive
Medical POA / healthcare surrogate
HIPAA authorization
Covers the essentials. With a will-based plan, assets may still need to go through probate — but your family will know your wishes and someone will have the legal authority to act on your behalf.
Recommended
Trust-based emergency plan
Everything in the will-based plan, plus a revocable trust that gives your family the best chance to avoid probate. Cleaner, faster for your family, and more complete.
$5,000
48–72 hours
Revocable living trust
Pour-over will
Certificate of trust
Trust funding instructions
Durable power of attorney
Living will / advance directive
Medical POA / healthcare surrogate
HIPAA authorization
This is the plan Allison recommends for most emergency situations. The trust gives your family the best chance to bypass probate — even under a rushed timeline. Allison’s CPA and CFP® credentials mean your plan accounts for tax implications most attorneys would miss.

Both packages are flat fees — this is the total cost. Payment is collected upon engagement via secure payment link sent with your engagement letter. Payment plans available upon request.

Why emergency planning costs more than standard planning

Three reasons. Compressed timeline — drafting and reviewing a complete plan in 48–72 hours means rearranging my standard calendar and putting your file at the front of every queue. Off-hours work — emergency engagements often involve evening and weekend drafting. Direct logistical coordination — for in-person signings at hospitals or facilities, I’m taking the work to you, which takes more time than a standard scheduled signing.

The premium reflects the real cost of dropping everything else. It is still meaningfully less than what most attorneys charge for emergency work, where hourly billing under time pressure can easily push past $7,000–$10,000 for the same documents.

How it works

Allison comes to you.

Estate Planning 911 is designed to meet you where you are — whether that’s a hospital room in Louisville or across the state on a video call.

🏥 Louisville area — in person

Allison is available on-site at hospitals, nursing facilities, rehabilitation centers, assisted living facilities, and professional offices in the Louisville area. She travels with a mobile printer and scanner so documents can be executed on the spot. House calls are not generally available.

💻 Anywhere in KY, IN & OH — remote

Clients outside the Louisville area are served by phone and video conference. Documents are delivered electronically with detailed, step-by-step signing and execution instructions — so you know exactly what to sign, who needs to witness, and what needs to be notarized. Distance hospital visits may be accommodated under limited circumstances — call to discuss.

🏠 What if I’m homebound?

If you can’t leave home, remote estate planning is the cleanest option. Drafting and review happen by phone and video. For the signing, you have two good choices: remote online notarization (the notary witnesses your signing entirely over video), or a mobile notary visit (a notary travels to your home, typically $25–$75). House calls from Allison are not available — for safety reasons she doesn’t do home visits — but the combination of remote planning plus a remote or mobile notary gets you a fully executed plan without ever stepping out the door.

The process

Three steps. 48–72 hours.

1

Call or submit the form below

Tell Allison your situation and your timeline. For truly urgent situations, call directly: 502-754-1351

2

Allison confirms availability

Emergency requests are handled ahead of standard intake. Allison will confirm she can meet your timeline and send the engagement letter with a secure payment link.

3

Documents delivered in 48–72 hours

Electronic delivery with step-by-step signing and execution instructions. Louisville-area clients can schedule an in-person signing at a hospital or facility.

The 48–72 hour timeline begins when all intake materials are received and availability is confirmed — not from the date of initial inquiry. Subject to attorney availability. If you have a hard deadline (surgery date, departure date), please state it clearly so Allison can confirm she can meet your timeline before you engage.

What comes next

Estate Planning 911 protects you right now.

When the pressure is off — after your surgery, after your trip, after the dust settles — a comprehensive estate plan builds on the foundation your 911 documents created. Your will becomes a pour-over will. Your trust gets properly funded. Your beneficiary designations get coordinated with your plan.

Right now, the only thing that matters is making sure your family is protected. We’ll worry about the rest when you’re ready.
