Features
Every part of your practice,
in one estate-planning workspace
Estateur is a complete, branded workspace for attorneys and law firms — an advanced, attorney-grade drafter, a full document catalog, per-client portals, e-signature, and the firm tools to run it all. Here is a deep look at how each piece actually works.
You remain the drafting professional of record. Estateur is not a law firm.
Drafting
An advanced, attorney-grade drafter
A guided interview for speed, or attorney-direct clause control when you want it — producing consistent, state-specific plans in minutes.
Guided drafter with attorney-direct control
StarterDraft a whole plan through a guided interview, or switch on attorney-direct mode for direct clause control. Choose single or married (joint & mirrored) plans and will-based or trust-based structures, with always-per-stirpes defaults, optional and skippable clauses, live validation, one-click document packages, and reusable firm/client defaults.
Plan-wide settings & Custom Parameters
PracticeSet how a plan behaves and how it reads: per-stirpes / per-capita distribution, the age a minor's sub-trust ends, spousal mirroring, an automatic pour-over will, and optional clauses like spendthrift and no-contest.
On Practice, save those preferences once as Custom Parameters — formatting and default clauses — and Estateur applies them to every document automatically.
Documents
A complete, honestly-tiered document catalog
A validated, state-specific core set for every plan — plus deeper attorney-review instruments when a matter calls for advanced planning.
Attorney-grade document library
StarterA fuller clause library and more document types than the consumer product, in clean, client-ready formatting. The grounded core set is state-specific and runs through Estateur's validation suite:
Advanced & tax-planning instruments · for attorney review
Deeper instruments, drafted as attorney-editable scaffolds
For complex matters, the catalog includes advanced instruments generated as neutral, attorney-editable scaffolds. They are drafted for you to review and finalize — with binding operative language flagged for your review and per-state execution formalities enforced by the verified rule set.
Per-client trust funding tracker
StarterA trust is only as good as its funding. Track which assets and accounts have been retitled into each client's trust, with a per-asset funding checklist and status — and generate the matching deeds and retitling letters right from the plan.
Client experience
A branded home for every client
Each client gets a secure portal to complete intake, review documents, sign, and stay current — in English, Spanish, or Chinese.
Per-client secure portal
StarterEach client gets their own secure space to review and approve the documents you prepare. Their hub holds documents, a checklist and tasks, secure messaging, signing, and an annual review — and the portal is fully bilingual, offered in English, Spanish, and Chinese.
Client self-intake questionnaire
StarterClients complete their own information in the portal and it flows straight into the drafter, pre-filling the plan and saving you time. Assign a questionnaire, and their answers become the starting draft.
Automated annual review reminders
StarterEstateur reminds each client — and you — to review their plan every year, so relationships and referrals stay warm without you tracking dates by hand.
Execution & signing
From draft to executed, without leaving Estateur
Edit inside the app, revise with AI, deliver or download, then run a valid signing ceremony — all in one place.
In-app editor, PDF preview & AI revisions
StarterView and edit generated documents right inside Estateur — a formatted, Word-style editor and PDF viewer, not just a download. Save revisions with full version history, and use AI intelligent revision to add a provision or tailor a section in plain language.
Fast, easy revisions with version history
StarterRevise an existing client's documents in a couple of clicks, with every prior version preserved. Mark documents executed, save a new revision, and always see the full history.
Send to client to review — or download
StarterDeliver documents to the client through their portal for review, or download finished documents yourself. Both paths, your choice.
E-signature & guided execution
StarterClients sign right in their portal, and every plan ships with state-specific witnessing and notary instructions for a valid signing ceremony.
Client Service Agreements — upload, generate & e-sign
StarterStart a Client Service Agreement (engagement / retainer letter) the way you prefer: upload your own PDF or DOCX, paste your text, or generate a draft with AI from a few inputs. Review and edit it, then send it to the client for signature through the same built-in e-signature clients already use.
The executed copy is stored on the client's record and downloadable, with sent / signed status on their hub — clean and fully firm-branded.
Get paid
Bill your clients and get paid, in the same place you draft
Send an invoice from a client's hub and collect online. Funds settle directly to your Stripe account - you are the merchant of record and Estateur takes no cut of your fees.
Collect client payments through the platform
StarterConnect your firm's Stripe account once, then bill a client right from their hub. Add line items, send a secure hosted invoice by email, and the client pays online by card.
Every invoice shows a live paid / unpaid / overdue status that updates automatically from Stripe. Because these are direct charges on yourconnected account, you own the funds, refunds, and disputes — Estateur takes no cut of your legal fees.
Firm & customization
Make it your platform, and run your whole firm
White-label the experience, save your own clauses, add your team with roles, and see the numbers across your book of business.
White-label firm branding
PracticeYour firm's name, logo, and color on the client portal and on every generated document — it feels like your platform, not ours.

AdvancedAdd attorneys and paralegals under one subscription with firm-admin / attorney / paralegal roles. One shared workspace holds clients, documents, and a firm-wide clause library, with centralized billing — and bulk, one-click drafting across your whole book of business.
Book-of-business overview & analytics
AdvancedYour dashboard gives you a live overview of your whole book of business - every client by pipeline stage (lead through executed), active-client and seat counts, and search across matters. Deeper firm analytics - executed matters, trust-funding progress, and estimated revenue - are computed for your firm today, with a dedicated analytics view rolling out.
Clio-compatible CSV export
AdvancedExport your drafted plans and client details as a Clio-compatible CSV you can import into Clio or another practice-management system that accepts it.
