About Hayward
Biography
I limit my practice to drafting estate plans at affordable rates and assisting trustees with trust administration. I do not charge for consultations, meetings or phone calls. I notarize the documents that make up the estate plans and I maintain digital copies of all documents indefinitely. I have been drafting estate plans for over 20 years and I operate without a staff to keep my overhead low. You will find me to be personable, understanding and willing to listen. I enjoy helping my clients.

Hayward Kendall Colby is an Excellent Choice
Mr. Colby was tremendously helpful with our Family Trust concerns and objectives after our father died. He was extremely thorough in communication and process in dealing with us on this matter. I offer the highest possible recommendation.
