We come alongside clients to help plan for incapacity and death. Services we provide include: powers of attorney, healthcare surrogate designations, wills, and trusts (including revocable trusts, special needs trusts, and more)

Elder Law 15%

Long-term care is a costly and confusing matter for families. We can help plan for this, whether the prospect of long-term care is years away or a loved one is already in a nursing facility.

Sometimes, a loved one can no longer manage healthcare and financial decisions, but does not have an estate plan in place- or there are problems with that plan. We represent guardians who are appointed by the Court to oversee healthcare and finances.

Smooth signing

Amy Phillips assigned my Will transaction meeting to her legal assistant Morgan Slaughter. Morgan answered all my legal questions, relevant to my new Will, resulting in a very positive smooth completion to this transaction.

Posted by Dale | June 10, 2024 | Estate Planning

Very helpful

Assisted me with current will, revocation of trust (that I was in the process of setting up when my wife passed), and life estate deed.

Posted by Chris | December 21, 2023 | Hired Attorney

Definitely NO!

Did the complete opposite of what we asked her to do. Then when we called to see what needed to be done to fix the problem, could not get her or anyone to call back. We definitely want our money back.

Mother and Son visit

Amy was simply amazing!! My Mom and I wanted to make sure the Sager Family Trust was in good standing and it was by golly!! I had questions about my own Will and Amy had all the right answers. I would HIGHLY recommend Amy and her team!!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
