Trust & Will

Arken Legal Software is a cloud-based estate-planning platform designed to digitize and streamline the document-drafting process for wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and related documents. It uses an intuitive questionnaire to capture client data and immediately constructs consistent, branded output, including full commentary for clarity; built-in alerts help prevent errors, and dual-screen live drafting allows users to review and adapt documents in real time. Its product suite supports a wide range of instruments such as simple and complex wills, Lasting Powers of Attorney (LPAs), severance of joint tenancy, expressions of wishes, advance decisions, and general powers of attorney, all generated in minutes with minimal manual re-keying. It centralizes client information, enforces precedent and branding standards, and integrates an “Intestacy Lead Generator” tool that educates clients on what happens if they die without a will, thereby helping generate new business.

GoodTrust offers an all-in-one estate-planning platform that enables users to create a comprehensive estate plan, including wills, trusts, powers of attorney, healthcare directives, funeral directives, and pet directives, through a guided, fill-in-the-blank experience. The platform supports estate plans that are valid in all 50 U.S. states and allows every family member to build their own plan at no additional cost. A key feature is the Digital Vault, which securely stores your estate-plan documents, details of online accounts, and legacy instructions, giving you full control over access and sharing. The system is designed for simplicity: users answer basic questions about themselves and their families, print and sign their documents with two witnesses, and upload the signed forms to their Digital Vault. GoodTrust emphasizes that today’s users can complete the process in approximately 20 minutes, with the ability to revisit and update their plan at any time.
