Counsel that reads the whole board.
A boutique Bellevue firm for families protecting an estate and founders protecting a company — with flat fees set before the work begins.
A table of contents for what we handle.
Two disciplines, deeply — estate planning and the law of closely held businesses. We decline what falls outside them.
Estate Planning
Wills, revocable living trusts, powers of attorney, and healthcare directives — structured so your wishes hold up and your family isn't left guessing.
Trust & Estate Administration
Guiding executors and trustees through probate, accountings, and distributions with the least friction the law allows.
Business Formation
LLCs, S-corps, operating agreements, and the governance that keeps partners aligned years after the handshake.
Succession & Sale
Buy-sell agreements, ownership transfers, and exit planning for the business you've spent a career building.
Asset Protection
Entity structuring and planning that puts the right walls between your business risk and your personal estate.
You'll know the fee before we begin.
