For what it's worth, I went to Siegel Family Chiro in Chapel Hill for a few 
months and I got significant relief for my sciatic pain. First visit was a 
little over $100 because they did x-rays, thanks to my disc problem. After 
that, it was $35 a pop (no pun intended) and worth it every time.

And Mr. Siegel called me at home a couple of times just to check up on me 
because he knew how much pain I was in. Offered to me refer me to a different 
type of doctor if the chiro alignments didn't do the trick within a few 
months. A good guy. He helped and I trust him.

Since we have a kid on the way, I believe it is now important to have a 
will made.  Our corporate lawyer also does estate planning, and he 
provided us with a newsletter extolling the virtues of a Revokable 
Living Trust as opposed to a will.  However, it seems quite expensive 
(the price quoted in the newsletter is "typically between $1,500 and 
$1,800 depending on the complexity of the plan" as opposed to "between 
$500 and $800" for a will).

Has anyone else set one of these up?  What were the fees like?  Would 
anyone like to recommend an estate planning lawyer?  Is the fee for the 
will even reasonable?  I mean, heck, I got a dissolution for $500, and 
I would think that would be more complicated than a will.  We certainly 
aren't wealthy, we just want to make sure that if one or the other or 
both of us die unexpectedly, the surviving spouse and/or child(ren) 
don't have to worry about money as their primary concern.  Also, we 
want to make sure custodial arrangements are made for the child(ren).

Secondary question: does it make sense to have a lawyer act as 
executor?  Since we don't have any family in the immediate area, I 
hesitate to name a family member.  Then again, I obviously don't like 
paying lawyers.  I doubt I'll like it any more when I'm dead.  :)

Sorry for the morbid topic, I went to my Uncle's extremely unexpected 
funeral just last weekend, so it got me thinking about proper planning.
