I truly enjoy helping people plan for and journey through the later seasons of life. While I enjoy a good attorney joke (and there are lots of them rightfully earned by the profession), I consider it a true honor and privilege to get to know and serve so many good people over almost 30 years of practice.
When people ask me what type of law I practice, I say, “Happy Law”. To me, a great day at the office is hearing my clients’ stories (especially the funny ones) and sharing mine. My primary method of simplifying the complex is through stories (many of which are quite humorous) and illustrations (my arts and crafts time). The truth is that “getting old ain’t for wimps,” and so many of my clients have or will experience serious health challenges as part of the aging process and eventually the loss of a loved one, be it a parent, spouse, or child. Such seasons are not happy or fun, but extremely stressful, bewildering, discouraging, exhausting and tearful. Many of my clients have exemplified what the covenant “in sickness and in health, till death us do part” truly means. So by Happy Law, I do not mean that I serve only people who are joking and laughing day in and day out, but rather I serve people who I enjoy spending time with and they with me, during the good seasons and even during the more difficult seasons. To me, Happy Law is all about people, so I consider myself blessed to serve so many incredible good people as we journey through these later seasons together.

We hired Herb outside of Avvo. He was great! He knows what he is doing and he does it well. He couldn't be happier. He was patient with my mother and went out of his way to help us. My mom was in a skilled nursing facility during Covid. Herb had no problem meeting us at the facility. We were ...

Cyndi and Ted, it has been a pleasure working with the 2 of you over these many years. Albeit, I'm a little jealous now that both of you are retired and I'm not (LOL).
"Herb is a bright and experienced attorney and he is always willing to share his knowledge and expertise with other attorneys."
"I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Chavers has been an amazing asset to the estate planning community. Shedding light on even the most complex situations."
"Mr. Chavers has been a great help to me on several occasions. His compassion and willingness to help others is evident each time he answers a colleagues difficult or unusual question. His help is always mere moments away. His knowledge in the area of Estate Planning has both incredible depth, and breadth. If you are old enough to remember the E.F. Hutton commercials, when Mr. Chavers speaks, I always listen! I endorse this lawyer. Dan Powell"
"I endorse this lawyer. Attorney Chavers has assisted my office in many probate issues throughout the years. His experience, knowledge and application of legal authority allows us to quickly resolve any probate issues that arise during our family law matters."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have known Herb for many years and not only is he an outstanding estate planning attorney but he is an outstanding man of character who any client would be proud to hire."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have found Herb to be conscientious, creative, caring, and competent in being able to put himself in his client's shoes, so to speak, and solve their legal challenges with a personal touch. I have been at several continuing legal educational seminars with Herb, which demonstrates to me his commitment to staying on the cutting edge of the legal profession. We have also co-counseled on matters so that I have had an opportunity to see Herb's mind engaged on a legal matter for his client. In my opinion, Herb serves his clients well and with a personal integrity which inspires confidence."
