Our Services

Visit our firm today if you need qualified legal guidance regarding the following estate planning matters:

  • Trusts: Trusts are the most comprehensive of all estate planning tools and simplify estate settlement. With the right trusts, you can avoid in-state and out-of-state probate.
  • Wills: A last will and testament is probably the most common form of estate planning and ensures your assets and wishes are assigned correctly. Your will designates who receives your assets and who oversees your estate after you pass away.
  • Guardianship: Guardianship establishes decision-making authority on behalf of another person. If you have any minor children or a special needs individual in your life, then you need to discuss establishing guardianship with a lawyer.
  • Probate: Probate is the legal process necessary to recognize a person’s death and administer their estate. Probate can be a stressful and emotional experience, but with our legal team on your side, you can feel confident the process goes smoothly and efficiently.
  • Power of Attorney: With a power of attorney, you designate someone to handle your financial and legal affairs. With a medical power of attorney, you name a person to make sure your wishes regarding certain medical treatments and fulfilled.
  • Existing Plan Review Update: Reviewing previously created estate plans is important. A detailed review provides peace of mind and confirms that all current laws are being followed. If your documents are more than 3 years old, then you should set up a consultation to make sure parts of your estate plan still comply with the law.

To learn more about your estate planning options and what you need to protect your best interests, please contact us.

    Justin and his staff were very professional, thorough and good communicators. They prepared every doc they committed to, and in a timely manner. I like the lump sum fee arrangement. I would definitely recommend them.

  • "We are so grateful we did this."

    We had been wanting to do and understand a trust for a long time. Once we received the meeting invite, the rest was easy. We learned about wills and trusts in an understandable way. Justin and his team are organized, thorough, friendly and helpful. They coordinated and explained each step of the process. We are so grateful we did this. The cost was invaluable. Thank you for everything.

  • "Would Definitely Recommend Crain & Wooley"

    We attended a lunch seminar hosted by Shelly Joyner and her team to listen and learn more about our options with Trusts. Based on Shelly's presentation, examples, and knowledge of Trusts, we were sold on Crain & Wooley as the firm to prepare and manage our Trust.

    The Crain & Wooley process from start to finish was fast, efficient and very professional. Throughout the progression, both Shelly and Steve Crosby communicated, answered all our questions, and provided various trust documents through the portal for our review /comments.

    Would highly recommend the services of Crain & Wooley!!

  • "Made the Entire Process a Seamless Operation"

    Finding a law firm to assist me in creating a "Living Trust" was very confusing. After interviewing three law firms, I chose Crain & Wooley.

    They got back to me quickly after the initial consultation and made the entire process a seamless operation. 

    I highly recommend and will work with Shelly Joyner and Crain & Wiiley again in the future.

    Shelly was very thorough in explaining my options in estate planning and reviewing the documents I did have. I appreciate the speed and ease in completing my documents and support in transitioning my home into our living trust.

  • "We Felt Valued, Cared for and Appreciated"
    It was a pleasure working with Justin Crain, Shelly Joyner, Steve Crosby, and the entire staff at Crain and Wooley. From the moment we walked into their office, we felt valued, cared for and appreciated. Justin took the time to explain to us the benefits of creating a trust and patiently answered all of our questions. My wife and I particularly appreciated their educational emphasis. They provided us with videos and literature that deepened our understanding of the process and purpose of  creating a trust. We never felt any pressure during our meetings with them to purchase any legal products or services. They educated us, encouraged us to ask questions, and let us make our own decision. We did decide to create a living trust, and we are very pleased with the results.
