Estate Planning in Tucson
Our Southern Arizona office is on the 7th floor at Broadway and Rosemont. Meet the Tucson advisors, see the next free in-person seminar, and learn what a complete plan involves.
RJP's Tucson office handles the full plan locally: the first conversation, the attorney drafting, signing, trust funding and the lifetime reviews that follow. Clients come from midtown and the Catalina Foothills, from Oro Valley, Marana and SaddleBrooke to the north, and from Green Valley, Sahuarita and Vail to the south.
Pima County probate works the same way as Maricopa County probate: a will alone does not avoid it, and a home or brokerage account in your own name goes through the court before your family receives it. A funded revocable living trust, recorded beneficiary deed and current powers of attorney are what keep a Tucson estate out of court.
Estate planning in Tucson: the short answer
- What it costs here
- On average, our clients pay about half compared to a traditional law firm for a comparable trust-based plan. One flat price covers the attorney fee, document preparation, trust funding help and lifetime reviews, and we quote the exact figure at a free consultation in the Tucson office.
- Who prepares the documents
- Independent Arizona attorneys we work with draft and sign off on every document; Clint Smith, licensed since 1985, presents the Tucson-area seminars. RJP is not a law firm. Stephen Levin and Dimitri Redwood, our Tucson advisors, gather your information, coordinate the attorney work and fund the trust.
- Where we meet
- In person at 5151 E Broadway Blvd, Suite 750, at a free in-person seminar in Tucson, Oro Valley or Green Valley, or by video call. The office is open Monday through Friday, 9 to 5.

Today I had the good fortune of meeting with Chris Cohan for a review of my Trust documents which had been prepared in a different jurisdiction. I wanted to make sure my Trust was in compliance with Arizona Law. Chris got right down to business and scanned the documents I had brought to him asking pertinent questions as he moved from page to page. Upon co...

Kudos to all the staff involved regarding our personal matters. The process was seamless.

We (wife and I) procrastinated long enough. We finally have our Trust and Living Will in place. I would highly recommend you getting this done because if you pass away now, do you know where your estate goes? It doesn't automatically go to your children. Plan ahead and get this done! RJP Estate Planning was exceptional at getting this in place for us. Gi...

Questions Tucson families ask
- Are the Tucson seminars the same as the Phoenix ones?
- Yes. Every seminar is a free, in-person, 90-minute session on wills, trusts and avoiding Arizona probate, presented by Clint Smith, an independent estate planning attorney we work with. Tucson-area seminars are held at venues in Tucson, Oro Valley and Green Valley, and dinner is included.
- Can my Tucson trust be reviewed if I move or my family changes?
- Yes. Lifetime reviews are part of every plan. Tucson clients come back to the Broadway office, or meet by video, to update trustees, beneficiaries and asset titling after a move, a marriage, a death or a sale.
- Does RJP handle probate cases in Pima County?
- No. RJP helps families avoid probate with a funded trust and correct beneficiary designations. If a Tucson estate already needs a probate case, we refer you to an independent Arizona attorney.
