Our Process

We want to get to know you; understand your concerns, provide you with the best advice so we can prepare a plan that will achieve all of you and your family’s goals.

Getting Started

To get started, you can call our office to make an appointment or register for one of our free educational events and we will guide you through the initial steps. We make it easy to get your estate plan in order.

What to Expect

When you come to our office you will be warmly greeted, we will make you feel welcomed and we will meet with you promptly. That is a promise.

We will then provide you with the best advice and counsel so you can make intelligent choices as to what you would like us to do for you.

Free Events

Free means free. That is what it will cost you to attend the many events that we give throughout the year. The purpose of these events is to keep our family of clients up to date on all  current changes in the law and to provide the opportunity to ask questions and make a complimentary appointment so we can review your estate plan and make sure it is offering the protection you want for your family.

Upcoming workshops

Workshops provide a more intimate setting where you will meet with our attorneys to learn what the current laws are, how they may affect your estate plan and for our existing clients to keep up to date and for those that are not our clients to learn as to why you need an estate plan that protects you and your family.

These are must attend workshops, full of important information.
