About Us
 How We Are Different From
Traditional Estate Planning Firms
No form documents…
All of Haymes Law Group’s estate plans are custom-tailored to each of our clients’ individual needs, desires, and particular family and business situation. Haymes Law Group will work with you to create a comprehensive plan that will allow you to control your assets, plan for life’s contingencies, and avoid probate and unnecessary taxes while passing on your legacy to future generations.
Relationships for life…
Because if you only create a will, a trust, and other estate planning documents once and “set them and forget them” they are not going to work when your loved ones will need them the most. At Haymes Law Group, Kristina will periodically review your plan to make sure it will always work. Kristina wants to be your family’s trusted advisor for life. Kristina offers a unique membership program for ongoing legal access that is affordable. With the traditional estate practice, you will get documents once and never hear from the lawyer again. Your plan won’t work when the time comes because your assets will have changed, your life changes, the law changes, or your assets aren’t owned the right way.
Up-front, flat fees only
Haymes Law Group 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. Haymes Law Group encourages clients to contact them with questions or concerns.
Creating Legacies that Last
At Haymes Law Group 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.
