I work alongside your existing advisors — not instead of them.

Your financial advisor, CPA, and insurance agent each play an important role. Because of my background, I can speak the same languages as your other advisors — so I can design an estate plan that actually accounts for your full legal, tax, and financial picture.

Why Cooper Law

A rare combination of credentials — in one attorney.

Most estate planning attorneys focus on documents. Cooper Law focuses on how your legal plan, your tax situation, and your financial goals work together — because they have to.

⚖️

Legal foundation (J.D.)

Wills, trusts, and powers of attorney drafted to reflect your actual family and goals — not a template.

📊

Tax integration (CPA)

Your estate plan is designed with your tax picture in mind from day one — not handed off as an afterthought.

📐

Financial coordination (CFP®)

Retirement accounts, beneficiary designations, and wealth transfer are part of the plan — not a separate conversation.

How it works

Three steps. No surprises.

📝

1. Submit an intake form

Short form, takes a few minutes. Tells me enough to understand your situation before we talk.

📞

2. We talk through your plan

Phone or video. I’ll explain what you need, what you don’t, and what it costs — before you commit to anything.

3. I draft, you sign

Documents delivered electronically or by mail with step-by-step signing instructions. Done.

The cost of not planning

What happens when there’s no plan in place?

$10,000–$20,000

Typical probate cost on a $500K estate

Court fees, executor fees, and attorney fees — paid from the estate before your family receives anything.

6–24 months

Average probate timeline

Assets are frozen while the court process runs. Your family waits — sometimes more than a year.

100% public

Probate is open record

What you owned, what you owed, who received what — all searchable by anyone. A trust keeps this private.

A Family Protection Plan at Cooper Law starts at $2,500 — a fraction of what probate alone would cost your family.
