Personal attention to your details

KR Hess Law’s estate plans are tailored to our clients’ individual needs, desires, and personal circumstances. Kristina works with you to create a comprehensive plan that allows you to control your assets, plan for life’s contingencies, avoid probate, and minimize taxes while passing on your legacy to future generations.

Relationships for life

With the traditional estate practice, you will get documents once and never hear from the lawyer again. If you create a will, trust or other estate planning documents once then forget them, they are not going to work when your assets, your family or the law changes.

Kristina wants to be your family’s trusted advisor for life. KR Hess Law periodically reviews your plan to make sure it will work when your loved ones need it. KR Hess Law even offers a membership program for ongoing and affordable legal access so these changes don't get put off until someday.

Up-front, flat fees only

KR Hess Law has thrown out the time clocks. No more billing in the six minute increments that most lawyers do. All fees are agreed to in advance on a flat-fee basis so you will never have any surprises. Nor will you be afraid to call your lawyer to get much needed advice. KR Hess Law encourages clients to contact them with questions or concerns.

Creating Legacies that Last

At KR Hess Law we have partnered with Sunbridge and provide a system for passing on your intangible assets to future generations—your faith, your wealth of wisdom, your values, your family history, stories, and your life experiences. Your wealth is so much richer than just money.
