for Every Kind of Family

Estate Planning for Young Families & New Parents

New and growing families need more than just baby gear and college savings—they need a plan. We help new and young parents legally name guardians for their children, ensure access to financial resources, and make critical healthcare decisions in advance, so you're always prepared for the unexpected.

Estate Planning for Single Parents

As a single parent, you shoulder the full responsibility of protecting your children. We help you build a clear, legally enforceable estate plan so your kids are cared for by the right people and provided for, no matter what the future holds.

Estate Planning for Parents of Minor Children

We help you choose and legally document short- and long-term guardians, avoid probate delays, and set up trusts or other legal tools to ensure your children are cared for in the way you want, by the people you trust.

Estate Planning for Young Adults

Just because your child is now legally an adult, doesn’t mean that they are ready to leave the nest. We walk you - and your young adult - through the process of getting the right legal documents in place to ensure that you can help when they need you to most.

Planning for the Sandwich Generation

If you’re simultaneously raising children and caring for aging parents, your estate plan must do double duty. We’ll work with you to balance responsibilities, ensure the right legal protections are in place, and create a plan that adapts as your family’s needs evolve.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is estate planning for parents of minor children?

Estate planning for parents of minor children includes naming legal guardians, establishing trusts to manage your children’s inheritance, creating powers of attorney and healthcare directives, and making sure your wishes are legally enforceable if something happens to you.

When should new parents start estate planning?

As soon as your child is born—or even before—it’s wise to have an estate plan in place. Accidents and illnesses can happen at any age, and planning early ensures your child will be cared for according to your wishes.

Do both parents need to be involved in the estate plan?

Ideally, yes. While we can work with one parent, joint planning helps ensure consistency, avoid legal conflicts, and create a unified approach to caring for your children and managing assets.

Can single parents do estate planning?

Absolutely. In fact, estate planning is especially critical for single parents. You’re your child’s primary protector—so your plan ensures someone you trust can step in, immediately and legally, if needed.

Is estate planning only for wealthy families?

Not at all. Estate planning is about protection, not just money. Whether you have modest assets or a complex estate, your plan ensures your children are cared for, your wishes are honored, and your family is not left in legal or financial turmoil.

Estate Planning Client Reviews

We worked with Erin on our estate plan and are happy with the result! Erin is knowledgeable, patient and detail oriented. She explained everything to us in detail and answered all our questions without rushing us! We even followed up with her to get reimbursement from our legal benefits and she told us that she will work with us to make sure we have the paperwork ready. We chose Erin even though she was out-of-network for our legal benefits and happy with our decision.
