About Beth
Biography
I have been the principal of the Law Offices of Beth A. McDaniel, PLLC since 2002. Our firm focuses on areas associated with estate planning including wills and trusts, disability planning, guardianship, elder law, probate, and mediation. We have offices in Renton, Washington and Bellevue, Washington. I am one of the eight certified elder law attorneys in Washington state, as accredited by the National Elder Law Foundation. Note: this designation is recognized by the American Bar Association, but not by the Washington State Bar Association. I was named Attorney/Law Firm of the Year in the Renton Reprorter Newspaper's Best of Renton 2019 Readers' Poll. I live with my husband and two children in Newcastle, Washington.

Experienced, Thorough and Professional
We went to Beth to review our will and came away with a complete Estate Plan. Bet and her staff were very professional, answered all our questions. Beth prepared a detailed and complete set of documents along with sensible advice on how to deal with our estate. we highly recommend her.

Terrific service
We needed a power of attorney for a 90- year old relative under some time pressure. Beth and her team were immediately responsive and helpful, including making a house call to an adult family home to eliminate any burden on our family and his caregivers.
