Frequently Asked Questions

How much does Alix cost?

We charge as little as 1% of the estate. Our fee ultimately comes from the estate, not your pocket. One transparent fee, based on estate size and complexity. No hourly billing, no surprise invoices. Legal filings, attorney support (when required), estate administration, and tax preparation are all included.

How is Alix different from a lawyer?

An estate lawyer can handle court filings, but that’s only about 20% of the process. Alix covers 100%: we prepare filings, handle debts, recover assets, file taxes, close accounts, and keep family informed, all for one flat fee that also includes a licensed estate attorney if required.

Can I trust Alix with personal and financial information?

Absolutely. We use bank-level encryption to protect your data. Only licensed professionals and estate specialists working on your case have access to your files.

Can I talk to someone before committing?

Yes. Our intro call It’s a free, no-pressure call to learn about your estate situation. We’ll ask a few questions, explain whether Alix is the right fit, and give you a flat-fee quote if we can help. No commitment required.

What legal work is included in Alix's fee?

Attorney fees for legal filings, required hearings, and court responses are included. If additional legal work is needed (like litigation or contested wills), we’ll connect you with counsel, but most estates are fully covered by our flat fee.

What liability does an executor carry?

Executors have a legal and fiduciary duty to manage the estate responsibly and in the best interests of beneficiaries and creditors. They can be held personally liable if they mismanage assets, distribute money before debts or taxes are paid, or fail to follow required legal procedures and deadlines.

How long does estate settlement take on my own?

Settling an estate on your own typically takes 12 - 18 months, though the timeline can vary depending on the size and complexity of the estate, whether court filings are required, and if any disputes arise. Tasks like notifying creditors, paying debts, filing taxes, and distributing assets all take time and must follow legal timelines. That’s why many people choose to use a service like Alix instead.

What if I already started the estate settlement on my own?

Many families come to us after they’ve begun the process and feel overwhelmed. We can review what’s been done, step in to fix paperwork, and help move everything forward.
