As a wife and mother of three children, I have a special interest in Estate Planning for families, especially those with minor children. I understand the concerns and worries parents have when choosing a guardian and setting a plan into place just in case something happens.  I will take the time to review the estate planning process with you, making sure you understand each step in the process, and most importantly, ensuring that you have a plan in place that gives you the peace of mind and assurance that your children will be taken care of.

Excellent, fast and professional
Zara did amazing job working on my estate trust. She met with me 3 times and we were able to finish everything in one week. She offered answers for all my questions and explained every step and document. The standard documents did not leave anything out that is important for me in terms of my religion and culture.

My family and I thank you and may God protect you.

Last Will
She is very professional but took time to explain all our questions and concerns. The executor of our estate will be able to refer to the notebook and follow all our wishes. She was able to review all our assets, determine the most efficient and best manner in which to disseminate our possessions. We are very grateful for her expertise!

Very helpful
I was moving back home when I got pulled over by highway patrol in St. Louis. I didn't want to just pay it and have another mark on my record. I live in another state so googled and found Azra. I called, she told me what she needed to represent me. I sent it over, she told me what it would cost (much lower than I thought to my surprise) and paid it. The court system was backed up but a number of months later, she emailed me and told me that everything was handled and sent me the paper work. She gave me clear instructions on the next step with the court. I sent the payment to the court and that's where her representation for me ended. Perfectly smooth and straight forward. This is coming from someone who has never had to hire a lawyer before.

Estate planning and new business
My wife and I are legal guardians for our 9-year-old grandson. Azra was able to guide us through the process to establish a trust, create durable power of attorney documents, pour-over wills, and several other documents. She was professional, thorough, and empathetic throughout. Her communication with us and other family members involved in the process could not have been better. Now she has laid the groundwork for a new business I am establishing. I have already referred her to others. Azra is the best!

extemely satisfied
Azra was able to have points removed from my son's driving record even after he paid the speeding ticket. She was very informative and easy to work with. I liked that I was able to speak with Azra directory and not just an assistant. Highly recommend!!
