about estate and business planning

  • Estate planning is the process of determining how your assets will be preserved, managed, and distributed after death or incapacitation.

    It’s deeper than just a legal process; it's the art of capturing a life and legacy.

    At Memento Law, we believe it's a written record that reflects who you are and what you want to leave behind for your loved ones.

  • Contrary to popular belief, estate planning is for everyone. It includes essential documents like Powers of Attorney and Advanced Care Directives, ensuring that financial and medical decisions align with your wishes in times of incapacitation.

  • Our Family Wealth Planning Sessions are in-depth working meetings with Ryan to discuss your assets, family dynamics, and estate planning goals. By completing some pre-session "homework," you can waive the $750 session fee. It's an opportunity for you to get financially organized and leave feeling educated.

  • You can book your call here!

    Or you can contact our office at 615-219-9710 or email us at hello@mementolaw.com to schedule your session or a free 15-minute discovery call.

  • As every plan is customized, costs vary. Most clients invest between $3,000-$8,000, but the final decision rests with the client. We practice transparent, flat-fee billing, fostering lifelong relationships without hourly charges.

  • Prepare for your session by completing a questionnaire and collecting documents related to existing Wills or Trusts. A link to our secure online platform, Legacy Architects, will be provided upon scheduling. Ensure all relevant parties are present, especially if you're married or in a domestic relationship.

  • Yes! While we love in-person sessions, we also accommodate Zoom meetings for those who can't make it to the office.

  • Not necessarily. Asset distribution depends on factors like asset type, ownership, and family dynamics. This is a common misconception, highlighting the importance of educating the community on the risks without proper planning.

  • The planning process varies based on your chosen plan and estate complexity. Expect anywhere from two weeks to a few months, with a more specific timeline provided after your Family Wealth Planning Session.

  • No, we've eliminated hourly billing to encourage open communication and foster lifelong relationships. We believe in transparent, up-front, flat fees for the best client care.

  • A Legacy Interview is a filmed conversation capturing your memories, values, and family stories. It's a gift to your loved ones, a tangible memory of the soul they cherished. While not mandatory, we offer the opportunity to update this video during your free three-year review.
