Personal Representative

Heidi is a very client-focused attorney with proven results. Working for Heidi I witnessed first-hand the great rapport she maintained with both other attorneys and the courts, leading to quick and efficient legal satisfaction for her clients. In fact, almost all of our new clients were acquired due to recommendations from other clients or attorneys.

I used Heidi Webb to update my Revocable Trust, Will, and LLC after the passing of my wife. I can not say enough good things of her service. She was very attentive to my needs during a difficult time and offered very good advise on how I should have things updated. She is very knowledgeable in this area of law. She always took the time to listen and make recommendations based on my needs. She even took the time to meet with my son who is the executor of my will to explain everything that he would be responsible for after my passing which was important to me and my son. She made me feel very comfortable whenever we met and explained everything in language that I would understand. I would be remiss in not stating that her staff is outstanding and always followed up with my calls. I would highly recommend her and staff for all of your legal needs.

Can I Draft My Own Will Using Online Forms?

The Internet is a fantastic tool for so many areas of life —there’s nothing handier than Google. That said, while it’s a great information gathering tool, I do not recommend using it to find online forms to draft legal documents —any legal documents. I always, ALWAYS recommend hiring a reputable attorney in the state in which you reside to prepare legal documents, and this includes Wills.

For starters, Wills are state-specific, and generic online forms may not hit all the requirements of your state.  Further, and possibly, more importantly,  a huge misconception is that a Will will help you avoid Probate, and depending on your circumstance that may very well NOT be the case.  Not to mention a poorly drawn-up Will may not only not avoid Probate but may create a COMPLEX Probate where one did not need to happen.  By using an online will, you are forgoing legal advice that could be very helpful to your loved ones after your pass.  Wills drafted by attorneys are specific to your needs and drawn from the years of legal experience of the attorney.

In sum, I tell folks all the time it is ALWAYS cheaper to get legal advice upfront than to pay an attorney to fix things after….
