Estate Planning - Providing Soft Landings for Families
Growing up on a small farm in Central Iowa, I learned the importance of hard work, respecting my elders, and contributing locally. I graduated from Iowa State University, and eventually attended law school at the University of Wyoming. I have practiced law for several decades, focusing in recent years on estate planning, and I enjoy it.
When my grandfather passed away without a will when I was a young man, my family was devastated, as the government took 70% of his estate. That lasting impression drove me to begin helping people avoid such difficult ends, and instead provide a soft landing for their families.
That's what we do at Johnson Legal, PLLC. We provide soft landings for families. Give us a call. The initial estate planning consultation is free.
