How we can help

Estate Planning — Wills, revocable living trusts, powers of attorney and health care directives, and naming a guardian for your minor children. Not sure whether you need a will or a trust? Take our Will or Trust? Quick Quiz.

Probate & Estate Administration — Help for personal representatives (executors) and heirs with Oklahoma probate: accounting for assets, filing in the right county, getting Letters Testamentary or Letters of Administration, identifying heirs, and closing the estate. See our Oklahoma Probate Guide.

Guardianships: Adult/Elder and Minor — When an aging parent or another adult can no longer manage their own care or finances, or a child needs a legal guardian, we help families through the court process and the guardian's ongoing duties.

Custody Disputes — Representation in child custody matters, including initial custody and modifications, focused on the child's best interests and a workable plan for your family.

Trust Litigation — Disputes over trusts and estates, including concerns about how a trustee is managing a trust, requests for accountings, and contested wills. This work draws on Joshua's background in complex litigation.

Also: corporate forms and business matters, securities, and civil litigation.
