My son Ricky and I are Arizona wills, trusts, and estate planning lawyers. We would love to prepare your estate plan documents. I suspect you are wondering why you would hire us. Here are some reasons.
- We prepare wills, trusts, and estate planning documents to protect your most valuable assets, your loved ones.
- We have 299 five star Google reviews because people love our reasonably priced legal services.
- I’ve been practicing law in Arizona since 1980 and estate planning law since 2001. See my bio.
- I have a master’s degree in federal income tax law (LL.M.) from the New York University School of Law.
- I’ve been married to my college girlfriend since 1972. We have two daughters, a son, six grandchildren, and two dogs. All three of our kids graduated from Arizona State University.
- Ricky has an undergraduate degree in accounting from Arizona State University and a master’s degree in accounting from Notre Dame University. He was a CPA for a national accounting firm before he became an Arizona attorney. Ricky has been practicing estate planning law with me since he graduated from ASU’s law school in May of 2012.
- We offer a free estate planning consultation (in office, via Zoom video or by phone) to learn about you and your loved ones and your concerns, to answer any questions you have and design an estate plan that will carry out your goals for your family.
- We don’t charge to answer estate plan-related questions before or after you hire us.
- We’ve created an estate planning website at www.azestateplans.com/. It is an ebook my son and I wrote called “Family Asset Protection.” If you are thinking of hiring somebody else to prepare your estate plan, ask them how many books they have written about wills, trusts, and estate planning.
- The trust agreement we give our clients has been reviewed and used by 5,200+ estate planning lawyers who are members of WealthCounsel. I’ve been a member of WealthCounsel and have used it to prepare our trusts and other estate plan documents since 2005. WealthCounsel makes the state-of-the-art estate plan drafting software we use to make our trusts and all of our other estate planning documents. If you are considering hiring another person to draft your trust ask that person how many estate planning attorneys have reviewed and used their trust and ancillary documents. Over 5,200 estate planning lawyers have reviewed our trust agreement and over 100 Arizona estate planning attorneys have reviewed our ancillary Arizona documents.
