Estate Planning Services for Modern Families
Trusted by growing families, business owners, blended families, and LGBTQ+ couples throughout Greater Boston
Personalized Legal Guidance
for Every Kind of Family
At our Massachusetts-based firm, we believe estate planning should reflect the people you love and the life you’ve built—no matter what that looks like. We proudly serve families with unique dynamics, including blended families, LGBTQIA+ individuals and couples, unmarried partners, single parents, and families raising children with special needs.
Whether you’re navigating a second marriage, co-parenting after divorce, or planning for a child with lifelong care needs, our team is here to help you create a plan that provides clarity, security, and peace of mind.
Our Estate Planning Services
We offer comprehensive, flat-fee estate planning services designed to meet the diverse needs of today’s families, including:
Estate Planning for Families
Your family deserves a plan that protects them from legal complications and emotional conflict. We help parents—whether married, single, divorced, or remarried—create thoughtful, legally sound estate plans that ensure your wishes are honored and your children are cared for.
Estate Planning for Unmarried Couples
If you and your partner are not legally married, the law does not automatically protect your relationship in the event of illness, incapacity, or death. We’ll help you put the right documents in place—from healthcare directives to beneficiary designations and trusts—so your partner has legal authority and protection.
Estate Planning for Second Marriages
Blended families often face complex legal and emotional dynamics. We help you preserve your intentions, avoid accidental disinheritance, and balance the needs of your current spouse with those of your children from a previous relationship.
Estate Planning After Divorce
Divorce changes your legal and financial picture. We’ll help you revise your estate plan to reflect your new circumstances—removing former spouses, updating guardianships, and protecting your assets for your children.
Estate Planning for Single and Divorced Parents
As a single or divorced parent, your estate plan is critical to ensuring your children are cared for by the right people, in the right way. We help you name guardians, manage inheritance responsibly, and ensure continuity of care if you are ever unable to do so yourself.
Special Needs & Supplemental Needs Planning
If your child has a physical, developmental, or intellectual disability, we can help you create a Special Needs Trust (also known as a Supplemental Needs Trust). These tools preserve your child’s eligibility for government benefits while ensuring they have the resources they need to thrive.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you offer inclusive estate planning services?
Yes. We are proud to offer fully inclusive estate planning services for all families, including those in the LGBTQIA+ community, non-traditional family structures, and people of all gender identities. Your values and your relationships deserve respect and legal protection—and that’s what we provide.
What legal challenges do LGBTQ+ couples face in estate planning?
LGBTQ+ couples—especially those who are unmarried—often face unique legal vulnerabilities if one partner becomes incapacitated or passes away. Without the right legal documents, your partner may not have any authority to make decisions on your behalf or inherit assets. We ensure your plan is legally binding and protects your relationship and legacy.
Do you have experience planning for families with special needs children?
Absolutely. We regularly work with families of children who have physical, intellectual, or developmental disabilities. We help you plan for long-term needs while maintaining your child’s eligibility for essential government programs.
What is a Special Needs Trust or Supplemental Needs Trust?
A Special Needs Trust (also known as a Supplemental Needs Trust) allows you to set aside funds for your loved one with a disability without affecting their eligibility for SSI, Medicaid, or other public benefits. It ensures they have access to additional care, services, or quality-of-life enhancements that government programs may not cover.
How often can I update my estate plan as my child’s needs change?
Your estate plan should evolve as your child grows and their needs change. We encourage periodic reviews and offer ongoing support to help you make updates whenever major life events occur—such as changes in health, benefits eligibility, or family structure.
