Operational Confidence for Trust & Estate Organizations

Since 2005, Trust & Estate organizations have used EstateWorks to help them improve operational visibility, standardize execution and build more resilient operations.

Built Around the Operational Needs
of Trust & Estate Organizations

EstateWorks was founded with a simple belief: Trust & Estate professionals should spend their time applying judgement and expertise—not coordinating workflow or tracking the status of matters.

Over the last two decades we've worked with hundreds of organizations, from boutique practices to some of the largest law firms, banks and trust companies in North America. That experience has shaped not only our software, but also our understanding of what makes Trust & Estate operations successful.

Our focus has never simply been helping organizations manage individual matters. It has been helping them build operating models that remain visible, consistent and reliable as they grow.

Firms We Work With

The Real Challenge Isn't Managing Cases.
It's Managing the Operation Behind Them.

  • Protracted multi-disciplinary processes of Estate Settlement

  • Deliver consistent throughput across the operation.

  • Missed deadlines create financial and reputational risk.

  • Maintenance of team communication and trust under pressure

  • Volume of data and work product to be collected, marshaled and stored

  • Time spent fixing processes versus managing clients and practicing the art

As organizations grow, operational complexity increases. EstateWorks helps create the visibility, consistency and accountability needed to support sustainable growth without increasing dependence on individual knowledge.

Build an Operation Your Clients can Depend On

  • Capture the Way Your Organization Works

    Customizable Master Checklists for different case types lay out the way that you want work be done.

  • Minimize the Risk of Missing Deadlines

    Tasks are assigned to team members with specific due dates. Reminders and reporting help prevent things from falling through the cracks.

  • Know What's On Track—and What Isn't

    Transparent case data, on-demand reports and scheduled email alerts provide a status overview at the Case, Individual, Team and Firm levels.


EstateWorks enables organizations to standardize execution, improve operational visibility and provide managers with confidence that every matter is progressing as expected.

Our Implementation Approach

Every Trust & Estate organization operates differently. We configure EstateWorks around your operating model rather than expecting your team to adapt to generic software.

  • Initial Setup

    We help you to develop the Processes, Tasks, Due Date rules and Case Team allocations for your Master Checklists. We also gather information about security rules and specific users, and other configuration options.

  • Training

    EstateWorks is then configured in accordance with the information from the previous step and is ready for use. Virtual hands-on training focussed on orientation and confidence-building follows.

  • Ongoing Support

    Further specialized training is provided as-needed basis. Support is provided on an ongoing basis, along with training for new users.
