Protect the business you’ve worked so hard to build
Your legacy is so much more than things.
Yes, it’s about money, but it’s also about what you do with your loved ones while you’re here. The values that you teach them. The memories you make together, whether that’s a bucket-list trip or a joyful Sunday dinner at home.
With careful planning, your assets will be distributed as you intended, and your family can focus on celebrating your life rather than untangling a legal mess.
At the Saunders Firm, my team and I leave no stone unturned when it comes to building a legacy you can take pride in. We have a finely honed process for everything, and we’ll guide you through it with humor, compassion, and occasionally a little tough love.
This is for you if:
You remember how complicated things got when your own folks passed, and you want to save your children the headache
You’re a parent or a caregiver yourself, and you want a plan in place in case something happens to you
You’re trying to talk your parents into estate planning and you need some support in the process
You’re less worried about getting this done quickly and more worried about getting it done right
You’ve let fear of your own mortality get in the way of doing the responsible thing (we see you)
Estate Planning
Our clients tell us “You ask us more questions than any of those other people did.” That’s because we’re firm believers in going deep—asking tough questions so that we can determine what truly matters to you. We know that facing your mortality can be daunting—but we also know that having a solid plan in place will be a relief. We’re here to transform how you look at your life, your legacy, and yes, even your passing.
Your estate plan is the last love letter you get to write to your loved ones. Let’s make it a good one.
Clients often ask us “what goes into an estate plan?” The truth is, no two estate plans are the same. But they often include:
A will that details what happens to your assets and your belongings when you pass
Trusts that protect certain assets from your estate—for example, setting aside money for a family member until they’re an adult
Advanced directives that make sure your family and medical professionals know what you want to happen if you’re incapacitated and unable to make decisions
Planning for anyone in your care, whether that’s an adult family member or a minor child
Ready to create your legacy?
Estate Administration
Even when your loved one has made a rock-solid legacy plan, there’s work to be done after their passing. We’re here to guide you through the process step-by-step—and provide a shoulder to lean on whenever you need one.

Business Law
We know how much time, love, and energy goes into nurturing and growing a business (after all, I’ve founded and run several of my own). The last thing you want is for it to be snatched away because of an unforeseen legal issue. We’ll examine your business from all angles to make sure that you’re protected, so that you can run your company in peace—and have an exit plan when you’re ready.
We know that the unpredictable nature of hourly-billed legal services can make it cost-prohibitive for entrepreneurs to get the legal and strategic help they need to start, grow, and scale their businesses. That’s why we use value-based, strategy-aligned subscription services to provide legal services that fit within any business’s budget.

My background
I’ve seen first-hand in my own family what happens if you don’t do any estate planning—and what a relief it is when you have all your ducks in a row. As an attorney specialized in estate planning, I work closely with my clients to ensure their families are provided for. But it goes deeper than that: by asking thoughtful (and sometimes tough) questions, I help you get clarity on the choices you’re making now and the way you’ll be remembered after you’re gone.
