Exploding Idea: Pet Estate Planning
This trend is emerging as a result of decreasing fertility rates and a growing perception of pets as family members, particularly as people fill the gap left by fewer children with pets.
Why Pet Estate Planning Matters Now
Legislative changes, such as California's Probate Code Section 15211 allows for pet-specific trusts.
This is beginning to spread nationwide, making this an expanding opportunity as pet prioritization continues to grow.
The Opportunity

The opportunity lies in merging these new regulatory changes with the increasing prioritization of pets as family member level companions. While traditional law firms offer estate services, these are not scaled for pets. Gen Z and Millennials prefer online platforms for legal services, transparent pricing, and flat fees, as highlighted in "Zconomy." This presents an opportunity for online native services catered towards this niche.
