We Plan Today For Your Tomorrow

Markell Estate Planning And Elder Law

With us on your side, you can trust that you are in the hands of caring and experienced representation.

Estate Planning

Your legacy is important. Legal jargon can be intimidating. We’ll use terms you will understand so you won’t be left in the dark.

Probate

If your loved one didn’t create an estate plan before they passed, we will help you through the probate process.

Elder Law

Seniors face their own unique set of legal issues. It’s important to work a firm experienced in representing clients in later life.

Guardianships

Sometimes a loved one needs more protection than you have the authority to provide. Our firm will help you obtain the necessary court orders to protect their interest in all situations.

Wealth Management

We ensure that everything you have worked to build over your lifetime is preserved.

Business Succession

We can help you find the right people to take over your business, and protect it’s interests.

Special Needs Planning

We can help you ensure your loved one always has the care they need.

Medicaid Planning

We can help minimize the impact caring for elderly relatives have on your family’s finances by helping your loved one qualify for Medicaid

We Prioritize Giving Our Clients The Attention They Deserve

FOCUS

We are NOT a full-service law firm!

We only do estate planning, elder law, and probate. These areas of the law are distinct from each other but closely related and somewhat interdependent. Simply put, this is what we do all day, every day. Because of this focus, we bring an extremely high level of knowledge and focus to the table and provide our clients with exceptional value.

VALUE

Speaking of value…

Our firm is unique because we don't charge by the hour! We quote fixed fees based on the amount of work that needs to be done. No surprises, no hidden fees, no-nonsense. Nobody wants to call their law firm and wonder how much it will cost them. With our firm, you never will. We always see projects through to the end, even if it means extra time with a client that we can't bill.

Estate Plans That Work

Did you know that most estate plans just don’t work?

Estate planning is more than just an assortment of documents - it's a complex puzzle that should be carefully put together by an experienced law firm. If your estate plan doesn't do everything you want it to, it may not be effective. Beware of firms that focus on selling you documents and not a comprehensive plan; there is no magic book and those “plans” usually fail to achieve a client’s goals.

What Our Clients Say About Us

Sheri Triller

My wife and I had such an amazing experience with Markell Estate Planning & Elder Law LC! Joe and his team provides excellent customer service. We had to make multiple changes to our existing estate plan and I can't elaborate enough on their responsiveness and how they went above and beyond to ensure our satisfaction. Thank you Joe and Team!

Michelle Loeffler

Markell Estate Planning accommodated my brothers and I very well after my father passed away. They made a grieving process MUCH easier and less stressful in dealing with this type of stuff (grieving is never easy). They were so kind and helpful throughout the whole process! I knew absolutely nothing about probate and the whole process but they took over and did more than an amazing job! No matter if you know about what to do after a loved one passes on or not, I highly recommend this place for your needs. They literally take over everything so that it is one less thing you have to worry about while grieving! Props to Jennifer and Phil especially who dealt with everything from paying my dads bills throughout the process and making sure it all went smoothly. They were both very helpful throughout a difficult process. Again, I highly recommend! Everyone there was also so nice and accommodating when walking into the office!

Megan Bethel

We were so stressed out before meeting with Joe about some complicated (to us) estate issues. Joe sat with us and explained everything giving us so much peace about our situation. We left feeling more knowledgeable and comfortable with our situation than ever before. I highly recommend Joe Markell for all your Estate Planning needs.

Renee Russell

Joe helped us with our living trust, and we are so grateful. We had no idea what to expect, but Joe led us through the paperwork professionally, and with ease. We are so thankful to him for helping us through this tedious…but necessary process.
