Good day.

Thank you for reaching out. Drafting a simple, personalized will that transfers sole ownership of the house to the eldest daughter typically starts at US $750–$1,200 for a private-client package. This fee includes a thorough consultation to confirm the client’s wishes, preparation of the will, a review of any existing property titles, and two rounds of revisions to ensure everything reflects the intended succession. If the estate involves additional assets, trusts, or tax planning considerations, the scope can be expanded, and the total cost would be adjusted accordingly (generally an incremental $250–$500 per added component).

To provide a precise quote and tailor the document to the family’s exact needs, could you share a brief overview of the client’s overall asset profile (e.g., other real-estate holdings, investments, or liabilities) and any preferences regarding execution (notarization, witnesses, or probate avoidance strategies)? Once I have that information I can send a detailed engagement letter and schedule a convenient time for our initial consultation. I look forward to assisting you in securing a smooth and legally sound transfer for the daughter.

Sincerely,
Ascendance International Organization
