July 20, 2021 — Trust & Will, the leader in online estate planning in the U.S., today announced a multi-year agreement to act as the exclusive provider of AARP member benefits for estate planning.

Beginning today, AARP members can save 10 percent on estate plans offered by Trust & Will, which includes Guardianships, Wills, and Trust-based estate plans. These customized, state-specific legal documents allow individuals to prepare their assets and families for the future. 

"We are proud to be the exclusive provider of estate planning services to AARP members,” said Cody Barbo, Founder & CEO of Trust & Will. “By offering inclusive and affordable estate plans to AARP members, we further our mission of providing families a better way to plan for the future and build multigenerational wealth.”

Trust & Will is the easy, fast, and secure way to set up your estate plan online. An estate plan allows you to create a plan to protect you and your loved ones both during lifetime and after death. Estate plans encompass both wills and trusts, which allow individuals to catalog their assets and leave specific gifts, such as money, possessions, and property, to loved ones. It also includes advance medical directives, which outlines what should happen in a medical emergency, and allows individuals to designate a healthcare power of attorney, which gives trusted individuals access to medical records. Lastly, a Trust-based estate plan helps families avoid probate court, a lengthy and costly experience. 

“Estate planning has become a priority more than ever before. Despite heightened awareness, increased demand and universal need, research shows a majority of Americans (62%) currently do not have a will,” said Victoria Borton, VP Lifestyle Products and Services, AARP Service Inc. “We are pleased that Trust & Will will provide AARP members with exclusive benefits and additional value when considering their estate planning needs.”

AARP members can access their estate planning benefits by visiting Trust & Will at https://trustandwill.com/partnerships/aarp or by entering their AARP member ID at checkout.
