Understanding Wills
A will is the foundation of a strong estate plan. It outlines how you want your assets handled, names guardians for your children, and provides clear instructions for your loved ones. I will help you create a will that reflects your values, simplifies the probate process, and ensures your wishes are honored. With a supportive, step-by-step approach, I make the process straightforward and tailored to your life and goals.

My Approach
What to Expect When Creating a Will
Every family is unique, and every will should be too. I take time to understand your priorities, family dynamics, and concerns, then translate them into a legally sound document that provides clarity and peace of mind. My process is flexible and client-centered, with virtual, in-home, and after-hours appointments available to make planning more accessible. Together, we’ll create a will that supports your broader estate plan and protects the people who matter most.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
A will is a legal document that outlines how your property should be distributed and who will care for your minor children. Without one, Oklahoma law determines these decisions for you—which may not reflect your wishes.
-
If you pass away intestate (without a will), state law dictates how your assets are divided. This often leads to delays, added expense, and outcomes you may not want for your loved ones.
-
Yes. Naming a guardian is one of the most important functions of a will, ensuring your children are cared for by someone you trust.
-
You should review your will every few years, or after major life changes: marriage, divorce, births, deaths, or significant financial shifts. I can help you update your plan as your life evolves.
-
Many people benefit from additional documents, such as a trust, power of attorney, or healthcare directive. I help you determine what’s appropriate for your goals and circumstances.

It doesn’t have to be. I break the process into manageable steps, explain everything clearly, and ensure your will meets Oklahoma legal standards.
