How We Help

Wherever your family is, there’s a plan for it

A good estate plan is one of the most thoughtful gifts you can give the people you love — clarity instead of confusion, and one less thing to figure out on the hardest day. Start wherever you are.

Young Families

Name guardians for your kids, set up wills and trusts, and put the “what if” documents in place — so your children are always cared for by the people you choose.

Start here →

Retirement & Long-Term Care

Protect your home, your savings, and your wishes as life changes — and keep the decisions in your hands, not a court’s.

Start here →

Medicaid & Nursing-Home Planning

Qualify for the care you need without handing over everything you’ve worked for — ideally before it’s a crisis, but we can help then too.

Start here →

Special Needs & Guardianship

Set up a special needs trust and guardianship so a loved one is protected — without risking the benefits they depend on.

How It Works

Getting started is simpler than you’d think

1

Schedule a consultation

We’ll talk through your family, your goals, and what’s keeping you up at night. No jargon, no pressure — just a real conversation.

2

We build your plan

Flat-fee, plain-English documents tailored to your family — and we walk you through every one of them, so you actually understand what you’re signing.

3

Your family is protected

You leave knowing exactly what you have and why. If the hard day ever comes, your family follows a clear plan instead of guessing.

Attorney Matthew Fabisch

Meet Your Attorney

Guidance from someone who’s seen how it plays out

Attorney Matthew Fabisch has spent his career in Rhode Island’s probate and estate world — including time serving as a probate judge in Smithfield. That experience shapes how he plans for you: documents built to hold up, advice in plain English, and a clear-eyed sense of what families actually go through when a plan is missing.

We won’t sell you more than you need. Some families need a simple will; some need a trust. We’ll tell you which one you are — plainly, at a flat fee — and leave it there.
