EMPOWERING YOUR LEGACY FOR TODAY AND TOMORROW, KEEPING YOU OUT OF COURT AND OUT OF CONFLICT.
At Dogwood Estate Planning, our Tuscaloosa-based estate planning law firm guides you to do the right thing by the people you love now, and will be there for you and for them when you cannot be.
Whether you have a lot of money or a little, keeping you out of court and out of conflict is our job. We make estate planning easy and effective, and we keep it as affordable as possible.
We guide you to leave a true legacy.
With our life and legacy planning model, we help you confidently make legal and financial decisions so you know you have a plan to keep everyone you love out of court and out of conflict after you pass.

Learn MoreWe ensure legal and financial decisions are made for a seamless transition after a loved one's death. We keep families out of court and conflict, managing trusts and estates efficiently and empathetically.
Learn MoreWe provide guidance through Alabama's complex probate process. We assist with the legal transfer of assets, appointment of executors, asset appraisals, payment of debts and taxes, and estate distribution.
Learn MoreWe are building relationships, not documents. For that reason, we help you organize your financial life and legacy goals before we get hired, ensuring our work is on the full picture of what matters most.
The assets most often lost between generations are intangible. Our personalized process ensures everything from your values to your voice are protected during your life and for generations to come.
Every estate plan is unique, driven by your personal relationships and risk factors. We work with you to map out the most likely scenarios for you, and plan for each as life changes.
You will know what you pay and what you are paying for at every step of our relationship. We offer a “no surprise” promise, ensuring transparency so we stay on the same side of the table, every step of the way.
The majority of estate plans are left unfinished and unsigned. We help you mitigate the biggest risk in legacy planning – procrastination – by making it easy to make decisions and solidify legal documents as they are needed.
One-and-done estate plans are a recipe for failure. We build lifetime relationships of trust with you so that your financial and legal decision making evolves at the speed of life, elevating meaning and purpose in every season.
