Fine Point Law on Nextdoor
"Ensuring that our kids are absolutely protected in any event is our number one priority. That's why I chose Fine Point Law to guide us through the estate planning process. Roxanne and her team don't do cookie cutter wills (which, as you'll learn, likely won't keep you out of probate court). And they don't stop at protecting your assets. They also help you really plan for the future-- every scenario. And they keep humanity at the center of everything. This isn't just about the law, although they're experts on the law. It's also about the story of your family and your future. I'm so glad we're working with Fine Point Law to ensure our family's future chapters are secure. "

"It was a delightful experience to have professionals handling our trust. Roxanne explained things clearly and Brenna was kind, knowledgeable and understanding of our needs, paying extra attention to our requests. She did an excellent job helping us navigate the various laws and our wishes. So good to have our trust in such capable hands!"

"Meeting with Brenna was positive and informative. She is plain spoken and easy to understand. She made you feel at ease and not intimidated. I feel confident and I trust everything she accomplished for me will protect my estate going forward."

"Roxanne, Brenna, and Sara were fantastic. My family are looking for our first house, and since we're a polyamorous triad, we wanted to make sure we have all the "just in case" paperwork set up - how is equity divided? Who owns appreciation? If someone wants to leave, what are the rules for buying them out? We also had a will, power of attorney, and similar paperwork written. All the paperwork you hope you never need!
No one batted an eye at our unusual family, and Roxanne actually has experience helping other families who can't marry legally plan out this sort of legal paperwork - from queer couples before same-sex marriage was legalized, to group-owned communes where a member had died and left their equity to heirs outside the commune. They brought up a lot of great points like alimony and appreciation which we hadn't thought about, and answered all our questions.
The legal paperwork was really clearly written and affirming; it made us feel like we really weren't "less legitimate" than other relationships. Sara asked for our pronouns and preferred names right away, and they were consistently used. And the price was quite reasonable for all the work we had done!
We would highly recommend Fine Point Law, especially if you fall anywhere under the trans, queer, or poly umbrella."

"Roxanne and Brenna at Fine Point Law performed above and beyond my expectations. They were very knowledgeable and guided us through the entire process of estate planning. They are meticulously careful of details and offer future reviews to make sure everything continues to be correct. I learned that establishing a trust is not only important for your financial assets but also Roxanne helps you create a safety net plan for your children and am relieved and grateful to know that that our young children will be protected and provided for if anything should happen to us. I highly recommend FPL!"

"A wonderful, open and honest person. She is conscientious and gives back to her community."
Mary B, California
"I've hired Roxanne Sher Olson to create our family trust and as a volunteer board member to review a land purchase agreement. I find her to be very professional as well as efficient, affordable, caring, and multi-talented in her field. I have highly recommended her to my friends and family as an estate/trust lawyer who have also hired her as their lawyer. Roxane Sher Olson provides clarity to complicated wording and breaks it down into terms that anyone can understand. She is thorough and timely in her paperwork and very helpful in presenting you with the different options that may be available to you. Roxanne Sher Olson is a lawyer who cares a lot about your best interest and does an amazing job protecting you and your assets. I would highly recommend her law office."
