We went over to NW Legacy Law because of the positive reviews and professional attorneys. We are really satisfied with the service we received from attorney Kaleigh McDaniel, she guided us through the trust process and would highly recommend her. The law firm's team consist of Michelle, Erika and Nicole. They are professionals to the core and an asset to the law firm. We are so happy we chose legacy law and recommend them to everyone who needs trust document work. read more

We worked with Kayleigh on a moderately complex estate plan. She and the rest of the team were relaxed but very knowledgeable and professional. We appreciated the "no surprises" fees, and they use well-designed charts to explain how everything is being set up before the plan is solidified. Bonus: offices are in a historic house on Officer's row. Highly recommended! Five stars!! read more

Planning for certain events in your life, thinking about how to protect your assets for your children, your family and all the details that go with it can be overwhelming. We were so confused about what to do, how to get started and what the best path was to creating an estate plan and a trust. Jake and Kaylee at NW Legacy Law seriously took all the pain out of this process, and it was so fast I could hardly believe it. We feel so secure and breathed a sigh of relief after we finalized everything, knowing that if anything happened to us, instructions for family, lawyers, trustees, etc. are clear and concise and leave no guessing, not to mention the financial benefits it will provide us all. THANK YOU Jake and Kaylee!! read more

We needed a new plan after moving to the state. A neighbor referred us to Jake at NW Legacy Law. We were happy with the process and the annual update program as well. Jake and his team really know how to help you get to good results. I feel good about our kids dealing with Jake one day. read more

Thomas came highly recommended by the Estate planners at my company and he did not disappoint. He took the time to explain the details of the different trusts, execution, nuances and end of life situations/inheritance processes. His assistant Erica and Trish were great working with on the details and scheduling, as well. Thank you all! read more

NW Legacy Law did planning for us and they walked us through the process. They were absolutely lovely throughout everything! Everyone there is knowledgeable, professional, and courteous. They were able to answer my questions and it definitely made the more stressful parts of the process easier. Highly recommend them! read more

My wife and I worked with NW Legacy Law in Winter 2025 to update our estate planning and it was an excellent experience! We last updated our estate plan in 2007, our needs were different, our children were younger, and we lived in a different state. From my first phone call through to signing our new documents, NW Legacy Law took very good care of us: they listened to our questions and concerns (in particular, my concerns about state level estate taxes), provided high quality, efficient, and courteous customer service, and have been a joy to work with. They offer a variety of flat-fee packages that are a good value -- anyone from a young family with minor children and a modest amount of assets on up to a very high net worth individual. We wanted a law firm with strong knowledge of Washington state specific estate matters but we didn't want to have to go to Seattle. We also wanted to avoid using a Portland firm that understandably focuses on Oregon state law and treats WA issues as a side-note. I highly recommend NW Legacy Law for anyone but I particularly recommend it for anyone living on the WA side of the river who has state specific concerns that a Portland firm might not be equipped to address. We worked primarily with Jakob "Jake" Seegmuller but I'm confident that the other attorneys at NW Legacy are just as capable. Last but not least: the "support staff" at the firm are excellent: courteous, responsive, helpful, and very organized! Once more: I highly recommend NW Legacy Law for anyone requiring estate planning services, especially individuals living on the WA side of the river! read more

We needed an update to our living trust, and found NW Legacy Law highly rated on YELP. We are delighted with their professional services and would highly recommend them for your estate needs. read more

Amazing caring service. Will use again and refer to anyone that needs their help. Fast easy and affordable.

My wife and I needed to update our wills and all related documents appropriate to a couple in their eighties. We included our adult children in all aspects of the project. While our personal and financial lives are not overly complicated we did have to consider the Washington State EstateTax as it could be a significant amount. We found NW Legacy Law through a thorough Internet search and believe we made an excellent choice. They are quite skilled at their specialty, legacy law, which is exactly what we needed. They handled both the substantive legal matters and interpersonal dynamics of the process with professional skill and sensitivity. We also found their fees reasonable and appropriate for the service and value provided. We recommend them highly for all those in similar situations. read more

I am 70 and have put off changing my will into a trust. I have enough assets to make it an absolute necessity. We just finished reviewing and signing all the documents prepared by Kayleigh E. McDaniel. She was incredibly accurate and organized with the way we wanted it set up. We can now have piece of mind knowing we won't be leaving a mess for our kids and grand kids. It was money well spent. We highly recommend her to procrastinators like myself. read more

NW Legacy Law makes estate planning as easy and painless as possible. Their professional approach and clear explanations helped us to organize our estate plan.

The people at NW Legacy Law were very professional and helpful. They set up a trust for me, which will aid my heirs in the future.

I would highly recommend them! read more

Jakob has been easy to work with as we set up our trust. He has offered an immense amount of tools and education so we could make decisions that met our best interests and needs. We highly recommend this office. read more

The consult was definitely not worth the $350 fee. I was seeking a clear strategy on the best way to set up a trust, which would have resulted in me hiring them. Instead she recited text book, and offered to arrange a meeting with other professionals an additional $350 'organizational' fee (because she didn't know the answers to my questions). read more

I just cannot begin to express my gratitude towards everyone at NW legacy law. They worked so hard getting me through my dad's probate process, and helped me set up my own estate afterwards! If I had to do this over again I would absolutely pick NW legacy law every time. I cannot thank this group enough beyond thankful read more

Needed a change to our Living Trust, it was done accurately, efficiently and in a timely manner. The updates were sent to us electronically the same day. read more

NW Legacy Law is simply the best. My wife and I went to NW Legacy in 2016 to update our trust for Washington laws. They listened, understood our needs and produced just what we needed. We liked their approach and the way fees were handled. Before finding NW Legacy, we had worked with three other firms on our trust over the previous 25+ years. The NW Legacy experience was by far the best and we went back to them for a 2025 trust update. My experience with NW Legacy is not just trusts. In 2016, I urgently needed legal help in the sale of property in my Mother's estate. A call to NW Legacy took care of all the details on very tight schedule. read more

They exceeded my expectations! Everything from start to finish was flawless. Let's face it, no one looks forward to discussing what will happen when their spouse or both spouses die, but they did with concern and compassion and they simplified what I thought was going to be a complex ordeal. read more

Northwest Legacy Law helped us set up a trust, update our wills and POA's in 2023. They were very easy to work with, made the process understandable, explained our options and how they work.

My husband and I worked with NW Legacy Law in April 2024 on a will & estate plan, and it was a wonderful experience. We appreciated the warmth, patience and professionalism of everyone we worked with. When you're planning what happens after you die, it comes with a lot of anxieties and difficult questions. Our lawyer Kayleigh took the time to explain all the trade offs and options in clear simple language, understand what mattered to us and patiently answer every question and/or anxiety we had. We felt well taken care of, and we're glad that we chose NW Legacy Law to help us through the most important set of paperwork we ever plan to file. read more

Definitely looking forward to partnering with them and would highly recommend their services. read more

All the staff I met and worked with at NW Legacy Law were helpful, knowledge, and caring. As I am getting older, it is not always easy to talk about what will happen when I am gone. Therefore, it was important for me to find an agency that not only had the knowledge of the laws but could also easily convey this information in a way that allowed me to make choices that fit my personal needs and situation. Every step was laid out right up front along with what it would cost. In addition, I was provided additional reading that I found to be invaluable. I look forward to maintaining a positive, professional relationship with the NW Legacy Law team. read more

I live in California, and in order to address probate on a property in Washington State, was referred by my attorney to Northwest Legacy Law. I was dreading having to go through probate long distance, but Jake and the capable, cheerful staff at NW Legacy Law made it truly painless! Like any legal proceeding, there were many steps to go through. They let me know in the beginning everything we'd need to do and the timing. They led each process, reviewed documents with me, and all I had to do was sign. This case could have been quite complicated but at each fork in the road, they suggested the most hassle-free, low-drama course. The probate closed in a timely manner (much sooner than my California attorney had expected!). I couldn't be more pleased with my experience with NW Legacy Law and would recommend them in a heartbeat! read more

I have taken awhile to write this ...alot going on as most of us do. It was important I state how grateful I am to have Jacob and Eric to direct and help me through the most difficult part of my life, the loss of my mom and probate.

I can't say enough about their caring and knowledgeable staff. They are the full package !!! Thanks Everyone !! Lura S. read more

My experience with NW Legacy Law can be described by one word-- superlative! The staff and the attorneys are professional and caring about one's needs and challenges.

I am very appreciative of the advice and guidance received by Jake, Erick and especially Lucy for their compassion and concern for me during a very difficult transition in life. read more

I was involved in an extremely contentious case with a former relative. I hired an attorney who did virtually nothing for 6 months. I found Jake Seegmuller who in one month settled the case in accordance with my wishes and have finally found peace of mind. He is extremely intelligent and gave me much advice that I took to heart (he was right). I can't recommend him highly enough. His fees are extremely reasonable. I am once again at peace. He is a good man. I started out with Thomas and Jake but it was Jake that I had the most connection with. He was a most excellent attorney. read more
