What problem does it solve? Estate planning and probate questions are highly state-specific, and quoting stale exemption amounts or missed filing deadlines creates real legal risk. This Skill grounds wills, trusts, probate, and succession answers in verified primary sources instead of memory. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Estate & Trust Counsel: Covers wills, revocable and irrevocable trusts, powers of attorney, healthcare directives, beneficiary designations, and intestate succession. - Verified Authority Workflow: Routes multi-domain questions through the legal_consult gateway tool, or acts as an in-session specialist that verifies every cited statute against live primary sources before relying on it. - Zero-Fabrication Discipline: Never quotes estate/gift exemption amounts or computes controlling deadlines from snapshots; unverifiable items are labeled "ASSUMPTION (unverified)". - Use Case: A principal asks "what happens to my shares if I die?" The Skill establishes the governing state, checks current statutes via legal_state_legislation, and coordinates with legal-tax on estate and gift tax interactions. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to review whether you need a trust for your business shares and have it verify the current rules for your state before answering.
