Phinney Estate Law is a small, local law firm serving individuals and families in the Seattle area by providing legal assistance with estate planning, probate, guardianship, and other related matters, such as immigration, family law, and small business services.

In the estate planning area, Phinney Estate Law provides all of the traditional estate planning tools including wills, trusts, and durable powers of attorney.  What makes our holistic approach to estate planning unique is our focus on making sure that the tools utilized match up with the client core values and larger goals for their lives and their families. We also work with clients to draft legacy statements, parenting statements, and plan ways beyond the law to pass on traditions and values.

In the probate and guardianship contexts we use this same approach and focus our practice on helping families and individuals to efficiently achieve their legal goals while working to maintain as fully as possible family harmony and personal dignity. As a result our probate and guardianship practice emphasizes non-litigated conflict resolution, especially between family members, whenever possible. 

Consistent with the approach we take to client services, we have endeavored to have our firm practices be consistent with our values as a firm.  To this end we have attempted to use best practices with regard to pro bono service, environmental sustainability, local economic support, and community involvement. We invite you to learn more about the firm and read our attorney profile.
