About Samantha
Biography
I don’t just practice Estate Law. I lived it.
My path to becoming an attorney wasn’t a straight line. When I was 16, my mother passed away, leaving me an orphan and a high school dropout with no one to take me in. I learned the hard way what happens to a family when there is no plan in place.
That experience didn't break me; it became my fuel.
After traveling the country and earning my GED, I fought my way through college and law school with a single goal: to fix the system that fails so many families. My journey took me from the University of Tulsa to the courtrooms of New York, by way of Oregon and New Orleans.
Resilience & Results I don’t shy away from a fight. I wrote my first book while studying for the Oregon Bar (which I passed in 2014), and I beat breast cancer while preparing for the New York Bar in 2016. Later, during the pandemic, I successfully passed the Louisiana Bar (2020). Today, I focus my practice exclusively in New York, bringing that same level of tenacity to every client I serve.
How I Help You I founded The Law Office of Samantha A. Fix to be the lawyer I wish I had when I was 16. I operate as a "Digital Concierge," meaning I use technology to make legal services accessible, transparent, and efficient. I work remotely—sometimes from my home in New Orleans, sometimes from my sailboat in New York—so I can focus on results, not overhead.
I specialize in:
- Estate Planning: Creating custom Trusts and Wills so your family is never left guessing.
- Article 81 Guardianships: Fighting for the protection of incapacitated adults.
- Probate & Administration: Untangling the mess after a loved one passes.
I believe sophisticated legal protection shouldn't be reserved for the ultra-wealthy. That is why I offer Flat Fees and clear communication.
Have a problem? We can Fix it.
Have a Problem? We can Fix it. I specialize in Estate Planning, Trusts, and Guardianships. I founded this firm to offer a "Digital Concierge" experience: flat fees, direct access, and no surprises. I replace the stuffy law firm model with accessible, efficient counsel to protect your family and your
Aging is expensive; losing your life savings doesn't have to be the price. I help families navigate Medicaid planning and asset protection to ensure your loved ones get the care they need without sacrificing the legacy they built. Don't wait for a crisis to plan.
If you don't have a plan, New York State has one for you—and you won't like it. I create clear, custom Wills and directives to keep your family out of court. I lived the nightmare of losing a parent with no plan; I’m here to make sure your family doesn’t have to.
Falling behind on your mortgage is terrifying, but it’s not the end. I have successfully helped distressed homeowners—specifically in the Bronx—navigate the complex foreclosure system to save their properties. You have rights. Let me help you fight for them.
Watching a loved one lose capacity is heartbreaking. The Article 81 Guardianship process is complex but necessary to protect vulnerable adults from harm. I handle these sensitive court proceedings with the speed and compassion your family needs during a crisis.
New York housing law is a minefield. With a background in property management and the law, I understand the realities of the lease on both sides. Whether you are an owner or a tenant, I focus on practical, quick resolutions to keep you out of endless litigation.
Losing a loved one is hard enough without the paperwork. Whether it's a simple Administration or a complex Probate battle, I handle the court filings, creditor claims, and asset distribution so you can focus on grieving. I make the process transparent and flat-fee.
A Will is a public admission ticket to Probate court. A Trust is a private vault for your family's future. I design Revocable and Irrevocable Trusts to avoid probate delays, minimize taxes, and protect your beneficiaries from creditors and bad decisions.

Citizenship Effort
Samantha diligently worked on my behalf to achieve my dream of becoming a U.S. citizen. The process was a long and strenuous one. Frustration led me to a point of hopelessness, seriously considering giving up on this endeavor. For Samantha this was not an option for me. Instead, her positive atti...
