  • Ask whether wills and trusts are flat-fee and what that covers (funding the trust, revisions, directives).
  • Ask who actually does the work — the attorney, a paralegal, or a form service — and who you'll call with questions.
  • For probate, ask about the realistic timeline and total cost for a Maywood-area estate before you engage.

  • Who will handle my file day to day?
  • What's the realistic timeline for my Maywood matter?
