Allison Cooper, Estate Planning Attorney

I work alongside your existing advisors — not instead of them.

Your financial advisor, CPA, and insurance agent each play an important role. Because of my background, I can speak the same languages as your other advisors — so I can design an estate plan that actually accounts for your full legal, tax, and financial picture.

Why Cooper Law

A rare combination of credentials — in one attorney.

Most estate planning attorneys focus on documents. Cooper Law focuses on how your legal plan, your tax situation, and your financial goals work together — because they have to.

Legal foundation (J.D.)

Wills, trusts, and powers of attorney drafted to reflect your actual family and goals — not a template.

Tax integration (CPA)

Your estate plan is designed with your tax picture in mind from day one — not handed off as an afterthought.

Financial coordination (CFP®)

Retirement accounts, beneficiary designations, and wealth transfer are part of the plan — not a separate conversation.

How it works

Three steps. No surprises.

1. Submit an intake form

Short form, takes a few minutes. Tells me enough to understand your situation before we talk.

2. We talk through your plan

Phone or video. I’ll explain what you need, what you don’t, and what it costs — before you commit to anything.

3. I draft, you sign

Documents delivered electronically or by mail with step-by-step signing instructions. Done.

The cost of not planning

What happens when there’s no plan in place?

$10,000–$20,000

Typical probate cost on a $500K estate

Court fees, executor fees, and attorney fees — paid from the estate before your family receives anything.

6–24 months

Average probate timeline

Assets are frozen while the court process runs. Your family waits — sometimes more than a year.

100% public

Probate is open record

What you owned, what you owed, who received what — all searchable by anyone. A trust keeps this private.
