Virtual Estate Planning

Protect your family from the comfort of your home.

Virtual estate planning

I understand how hard it can be to find the time to take care of important "chores" like making a Will. I make it easy. Meet with me virtually at your convenience. My goal is to make the planning process as easy as possible. That's why I offer virtual estate planning by video. You can complete the entire process without leaving home and be certain that you received high quality legal advice.

I currently offer ZOOM, Skype, Facetime or Google Meet for video conferences. My preference is ZOOM (or Google Meet if you are hearing-impaired as the closed captioning is quite good). It is very easy to use. Once we schedule our meeting, I'll send you a link. Most of the time you don't need to download or install any special software. Just click the link and go. 

My virtual estate planning clients receive the same high-quality, customized advice in the planning and drafting of all their estate documents but without the need to physically visit an office.

Flexible scheduling.

We can schedule your virtual estate planning meeting during regular business hours and I also offer a limited number of early evening (up to 6pm start times) as I know everyone's schedule is different.

Virtual estate planning that is convenient for YOU.

Whether you are calling me from from home, work or abroad, I make your important choices easy. Meeting with your lawyer should not be the hardest part of protecting your family's future.

Virtual estate planning won't work for everybody or every situation - please read my FAQ below or contact me to ask if it's the right fit.


Responsive service

I live by the Golden Rule - treat others how you want to be treated. I return every email, usually right away, but absolutely no later than next day! And you will always get me, not a clerk.

Expert advice

Wills and estates are all I do. I don't dabble. I've drafted a lot of Wills and know what questions to ask so we don't miss anything.

You need a professional - you don't know what your don't know!

2. Schedule an intro phone call 

I will ask a few background questions about your circumstances, explain my process and make sure we're a good fit and the virtual planning is right for you. I'll also tell you exactly how much it will cost.

3. Schedule a virtual estate planning meeting
