Unless you have a very complex estate, you should be able to make your own. the NOLO press has a book that explains how to do that for each state, and includes draft documents you can use as a starting point.
If you do make your own, make sure you understand the recording/filing requirements in your state, including number of witnesses required, and whether it needs to be notarized.

Why don't you contact a few lawyers in your town and ask them? Also, many lawyers will let you have a short "conference" for, say, 30 minutes for a very low fee. You could schedule an appointment and find out how much he would charge for what you need to have done.
Of course his fee will depend on how much work he has to do so it will depend on how big and complex your estate is.

You can usually get them done online for a few hundred dollars. Just look up wills or living wills, whichever you need.
