Estate Planning and Administration
We work with clients to create customized estate plans that reflect their unique wishes and circumstances. This may include drafting wills, establishing trusts, assigning powers of attorney, and creating advance healthcare directives. We will help you in making informed decisions to protect your assets and ease the burden on your loved ones.
When a loved one passes away, the process of settling their estate can be overwhelming and time-consuming. We help in guiding executors and administrators through the probate and estate administration process. We will assist in navigating the legal requirements, including filing necessary documents and distributing assets according to the decedent's wishes and applicable laws.

Legal Name Change
It is integral to our firm values that people feel seen and valued for exactly who they are, and we don’t ever want cost to be a barrier to making this happen. We are happy to notarize and make certified original copies of the documents required to legally change your name with the government pro bono to ensure your name aligns with your gender identity.
