When it comes to estate planning, settling for less than the best can have negative long-term consequences and, unfortunately, by the time the problems with your plan surface, they may be too late to correct. The laws surrounding estate planning can be incredibly complex. If the attorney you choose isn’t an expert in estate planning, your estate plan may fall short of reaching your goals, leaving your legacy unprotected.  To ensure your estate plan is secure, you need the help of an attorney who specializes in estate planning.  More than that, you need a team of specialists. 

Navigating probate law can also be complicated. A legal team that specializes in probate can streamline and simplify the probate process, making the process less stressful for you.   

The team at J Nichols Law specializes in estate planning and probate. Jennifer Nichols, Beaumont estate planning attorney and CPA and founder of the firm, is Board Certified by the Texas Board of Specialization in Estate Planning and Probate and boasts nearly two decades in the legal sphere.  Nichols wants to ensure that her clients understand she knows exactly what can go wrong in an estate or an estate plan, and that she has the expertise and experience to make sure it goes right. "I specialize in estate planning and probate," she says. "Clients who come to me can have confidence that they are getting expert representation." 

Doing What's Best for the Client: It's a Team Effort 

The firm is much more than just one Beaumont trust attorney. When Nichols sets out to serve her clients, she doesn't work alone. She has the support of two exceptional paralegals. Lauren Randolph is a long-time champion of the trade, with more than thirty years of experience in estate planning, probate, and business law. "She goes above and beyond to meet the needs of our clients," says the firm's site proudly. Cecilia Merrell brings forth both experience and the ability to "keep things moving and make our representation process seamless." Each with their own unique role, the team comes together to bring exceptional service and legal expertise to every client served.

No Surprises Here: Flat Fees and Transparency 

It's important to Nichols that the cost of representation not be a surprise, so the firm's services are often offered at a flat fee. "Clients deserve to know how much the legal service they are purchasing will cost them before they commit to purchasing it," says Nichols. "I am committed to offering flat fee arrangements whenever possible to eliminate uncertainty." Nichols is a Beaumont probate attorney who believes that services like these should be fair, transparent, and reliable, and clients shouldn't have any surprise costs added on by the legal team that is supposed to be helping them. 

Getting the Job Done Right: Confident Representation 

"The decision to start my own firm was not an easy one, but has been well worth it," says Nichols. "Over the years, I have fixed many other lawyers' and general legal practitioners' mistakes that were not discovered until years after they were made. Unfortunately, in some cases it was too late." Choosing the wrong firm can have consequences.  Nichols has made it her mission to help her clients complete their estate planning with confidence that it was done right.
