Who We Serve

Estate Planning for Parents

Protect your children and make sure the people you trust are legally empowered to care for them—no matter what. We help parents of minor or young adult children build a plan that includes guardianship, trusts, healthcare decisions, and more.

Today’s families come in all forms. Whether you’re raising kids, part of a blended family, or co-parenting after divorce, we’ll help you create a plan that reflects your unique structure and priorities.

Estate Planning for Young Adults

Turning 18 means legal adulthood. We help young adults put the right tools in place—like powers of attorney and healthcare proxies—to ensure someone can act on their behalf in an emergency.

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.

Nermin

Kerri walked us through each step of the process with great care. She’s professional, empathetic, has a keen eye for detail and very organized. She covered every base, considering situations I would have never planned for.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does flat-fee estate planning mean?

Flat-fee estate planning means you pay one clear, upfront price for your entire planning process—no hourly billing, hidden fees, or surprise costs. It allows us to take the time needed to get to know your family, explain your options, and build a customized plan without rushing or watching the clock.

Do you offer virtual estate planning services in Massachusetts?

Yes! We offer virtual options for every meeting except for the Signing Meeting, which we typically hold in-office in Melrose. If this causes concern, let us know – we’re happy to make accommodations when necessary.

Is estate planning only for people with large estates or wealth?

Not at all. Estate planning is about protection, not just wealth. Even if you don’t own a home or have a large bank account, you still need to make sure your healthcare wishes are honored, someone can make decisions for you in an emergency, and your loved ones avoid unnecessary conflict and court delays.

Not Sure If Estate Planning Is Right for You?

We get it—estate planning can feel overwhelming, unnecessary, or like something you’ll get to “someday.” But here’s the truth:

You don’t need to be wealthy to need a plan. If you have kids, a partner, aging parents, or simply want a say in what happens if something unexpected occurs, estate planning is for you.
It’s not as complicated as you think. We guide you step-by-step, using a clear, flat-fee process designed to be simple, supportive, and stress-free.
You can always update it. Life changes—so should your plan. We build long-term relationships so you can revisit and revise your documents as your needs evolve.

Your family deserves clarity, protection, and peace of mind—and we’re here to help you get there.
