I’m a husband, a dad, a reader, a business owner, and, yes, a lawyer. I work with families and entrepreneurs who want to protect what matters most: their loved ones and the businesses they’ve built.
When people ask how I got into estate planning and business law, I tell them it all goes back to my grandfather. His estate plan helped pay for my education and set me on this path. I didn’t realize it at the time, but that trust he set up did more than pay tuition, it created opportunity. It made a difference. And that’s what I want to do for my clients: create plans that give peace of mind, avoid unnecessary complications, and actually work when it counts.
My Approach
Legal planning shouldn’t feel intimidating. I’ve built my practice to be approachable, efficient, and tailored to your goals. Whether you're preparing your estate plan or navigating the ins and outs of running a business, my job is to make sure you understand your options in plain English, not legal jargon. I want you to feel confident and clear every step of the way.
I use modern tools like digital document signing, online scheduling, and a secure client portal to make things as smooth as possible. But I also know not everyone wants to “go digital,” so we’ll work in whatever way fits your style. The important thing is that you get what you need, with as little stress as possible.
Who I Work With
I work with people who are in that phase of life where they’re juggling a lot: raising kids, running a business, managing finances, maybe helping aging parents, too. They’re smart, responsible, and care deeply about doing the right thing… they just don’t have the time or desire to become legal experts. That’s where I come in.
Some clients come to me for a fresh start. Maybe they’ve never done an estate plan or are just starting a business. Others already have something in place but want to make sure it’s still working for their current life. Either way, we’ll meet you where you are and get you where you need to be.
A Little Bit About Me
When I’m not working with clients, you’ll usually find me with my family or nose-deep in a book. I’m on a personal quest to read at least 52 books a year—everything from legal thrillers to business strategy to historical fiction. If you’ve got a great book recommendation, I’d love to hear it.

President (corporation)
Andrew Ayers is a refreshing change from most of the lawyers I have dealt with in the past. He is responsive and very efficient. Some of the firms I have dealt with put two or three people on a case that could be handled by one in half the time. I am happy to give him a top rating.
