You have worked this Iowa land your whole life. Let's make sure it stays in the family.
Iowa farm families know that keeping the operation going takes planning. Succession Plan helps you build a complete plan that protects your land, treats every child fairly, and follows Iowa law exactly.

The fairness problem Iowa families face.
One child farms the land. The others moved to Des Moines or Chicago. Dividing things equally could force a sale. That is not what you want.
Our planning tools let you model different scenarios. See what happens if Sarah gets the farm and Tom and Lisa each get life insurance. Or if you set up a right of first refusal. Compare them side by side in plain dollar terms.
Documents that follow Iowa law.
Every document is built for Iowa. We know your state's rules and we follow them exactly.
Will
In Iowa, a will is signed in person, on paper, with two witnesses. That is state law. We guide you through the exact steps. Remote notarization never completes a will. It can only add the self-proving affidavit that makes probate smoother.
Healthcare directive
Name the person who makes medical choices if you cannot. This document can be notarized on video from home, where Iowa law allows.
Financial power of attorney
Choose who manages your finances if you are unable to. This can also be notarized remotely, following Iowa's rules.
Revocable living trust
A trust can keep your farm out of probate and give your family more control. We track whether your trust is actually funded.
Three ways to sign your documents in Iowa.
Self-guided signing
We give you exact, printed steps for your state. You arrange the signing at your convenience.
Remote notarization
For your healthcare directive, power of attorney, and the self-proving affidavit, a notary joins you on video. Never for signing your will itself.
In-home signing ($350 per visit)
On our Concierge plan, we send a notary and two qualified witnesses to your Iowa home. You sign your will at your kitchen table, exactly as Iowa law requires.
Write down what only you know.
Your operational knowledge matters as much as your legal documents. Record the details: who leases which fields, grain contract terms, equipment locations, FSA program details, the water shutoff. If something happened tomorrow, your family would know how to keep things running.
Simple, honest pricing.
One payment builds your plan. Your first year is included. After that, a small yearly fee keeps everything current.
Plans start at $299. Every setup fee comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee.
