Welcome, From Estate Planning & ElderLaw Attorney
Richard Mayberry

Estate planning impacts your family's welfare, health & wealth.

An estate plan that works will 

  • maintain lifetime control over your assets
  • plan ahead for Mon and Dad infirmity from debilitating illnesses such as Alzheimer's
  • answer the question whether you want life support in case of a terminal medical condition, and
  • probate efficient transfer of your property at death to your loved ones.

Prospective clients who are offered an initial consultation without charge. A flat fee will be quoted and a delivery date set.


An Engaged Client Achieves the Best Results

Email  Dick Mayberry   to discuss your estate planning and eldercare law needs.



Anxiety about legal fees and procrastination combine to frustrate many from getting started with their estate planning. 

It cost nothing to meet with me to discuss your most precious asset -- your family, and its welfare should something happen to you. 

I will quote you a fair and reasonable flat fee after our initial meeting.

If, for any reason, you do not feel comfortable going forward at that time, you owe nothing, and I am privileged to have visited with you.

Contrast this with the cost & perils of procrastination which are immeasurable to surviving loved ones...avoidable pain, confusion and family conflict.
