Tailored solutions for life’s most important decisions

Planning for Today, Protection for Tomorrow

  • Protecting your loved ones and your legacy

    For many families, writing a will feels like a task you can put off until it’s too late. Yet a will is one of the greatest gifts you can give your loved ones: clarity in uncertain times. Allison works closely with clients to prepare wills, enduring powers of attorney, personal directives, and estate plans that reflect their values, appoint trusted representatives, and safeguard their children’s guardianship. The result? Confidence that your wishes will be honored and your family fully supported.

  • Flexible solutions designed around your needs

    Trusts can sound intimidating, but in the right hands, they are a powerful tool. 
    Whether it’s protecting a vulnerable beneficiary, supporting future generations, or managing tax and succession planning, Allison simplifies the process

    She develops strategies that fit your goals, from family trusts to alter ego and testamentary trusts. Clients gain not just legal structure, but long-term security and flexibility for the people and causes they care about most.

  • Professional support when your family needs it most

    When grief is fresh, the last thing families need is the weight of complex legal and financial responsibilities. 

     

    Acting as an executor can be overwhelming, and sometimes a source of conflict. Allison offers private executor services to shoulder this burden with efficiency, impartiality, and compassion. 

     

    Families are freed to focus on healing, knowing every detail of estate administration is being managed with diligence and care.
