The Legacy Fortress training is a free, 5-day educational course that walks you through how wills, trusts, and estate planning actually work — in plain language. Each lesson is short, focused, and designed to give you clarity on how to protect your family and your assets. There's no legal jargon, no pressure, and no obligation.

Yes, the training is 100% free. No credit card is required to sign up. We created this course because most families don't have a clear understanding of how estate planning works, and that lack of clarity costs them time, money, and peace of mind. At the end of the training, you'll have the option to take the next step if it makes sense for you — but that's completely optional.

Each lesson takes about 8–10 minutes. After each one, you'll answer two short reflection questions, and then the next lesson unlocks automatically. You can complete the entire training in about an hour total, spread across 5 days.

No. This training is educational. It's designed to help you understand the key concepts — what wills do, what trusts do, how probate works, and what happens if you don't have a plan. If you decide to take action afterward, we can connect you with licensed professionals, but the training itself is just about giving you the knowledge.

A will tells the court how you want your assets distributed after you pass away — but it has to go through probate, which is a public, court-supervised process that can take months and cost thousands. A trust holds your assets during your lifetime and transfers them directly to your beneficiaries when you pass — without probate, without court involvement, and without becoming public record. Most families benefit from having both. The training explains exactly why.

Yes. Estate planning isn't just for the wealthy. If you own a home, have a bank account, have children, or have anyone who depends on you — you need a plan. Without one, the state decides who gets your assets, who raises your kids, and who manages your money. That process is slow, expensive, and public. Only 45% of American adults have any estate planning documents in place. This training helps you understand why it matters and what to do about it.

If you pass away without any estate planning documents, your state's intestacy laws determine everything — who gets your assets, who raises your children, and who manages your estate. The court makes these decisions, not your family. This process (called probate) can take 6 months to 2+ years, cost 3–7% of your estate in fees, and every detail becomes public record. The training covers real examples of exactly how this plays out.

Absolutely. A will alone doesn't prevent probate, doesn't keep your affairs private, and doesn't help if you become incapacitated. Many families think they're covered because they have a will, only to find out it wasn't funded properly, wasn't updated, or didn't include the right supporting documents. The training shows you the gaps most people don't know about.

Please do. Estate planning is a family conversation, and going through this training together can make it much easier to align on what matters. Each person should register individually so they can track their own progress.
