My goal is to give you personalized service that will help you reach your goals. I founded Olympia Estate Law & Mediation to focus my time and energy on the work I love doing.. ESTATE PLANNING. I assisted my first client with writing a will, advance directive, and powers of attorney in 2008, when I was volunteering with King County Volunteer Legal Services. After trying a few other career paths in law and starting a family of my own, I  finally "hung my shingle" so I could help other moderate income families and individuals preserve wealth, pass on values, and feel confident that their final wishes will be honored.. MEDIATION. I began mediating with the the Dispute Resolution Center (DRC) of Thurston County in 2012. Since then, I have mediated dozens of cases and taken a number of advanced mediator trainings. I am skilled at helping parties reach agreements and improve their ability to communicate with one other.. LIFE. I live in Olympia with my husband, daughter, and two cats. In my free moments, I enjoy playing with my daughter, tending to my garden, and daydreaming about going scuba diving again someday.

Estate Planning for the Whole FamilyWe work with families of all kinds; those who are married or single, with a traditional family or a blended one, and those who are just starting out or looking at a life well-lived.. I graduated with honors from the University of Washington School of Law in 1980. After working in the legal field for 28+ years, I took a 10-year break before returning to law in 2022.. So, I AM BACK! I am rebuilding what I started with the benefit of my life experience and the resources of the Personal Family Lawyer program. The programs systems create an efficiency that allows me to focus on what I like best: getting to know our clients so we can create comprehensive customized plans for them.. I am the proud mother of Megan and Alec and grandmother of Jameson and triplets; McKinley, Jaden and Jaxson.. Because of my grandparenting experience, I am especially interested in working with grandparents – who want to protect themselves, their wonderful adult children, and their adored grandchildren.. A former client who wants to work with me again, says: “Thank you for coming back to help those of us who love your wonderful help with our futures and how we want t leave things for our loved ones. You are the best! Thank you, Melanie D.”.. We start by scheduling a Wealth Planning Session (which usually lasts 2 hours). Once scheduled, we send a Life and Legacy Inventory and Assessment to be completed as best you can before the Wealth Planning Session. We also ask for copies of all Deeds, financial statements evidencing your ownership of bank accounts, investment accounts, retirement accounts, and annuities, as well as stocks or bond certificates. In addition, we need copies of any LLC or Partnership Agreements and your previous estate planning documents. At that session, I make recommendations regarding a customized estate plan and the corresponding flat fee; half of which is paid upfront and the balance paid at the completion of the estate plan. (Because we don’t bill hourly for estate planning, there are no surprises.) The signing of the documents usually takes place 4 weeks after the planning session.. After completion and implementation of the estate plan, we offer free 3-year review sessions to determine if there is a need for a change in your estate plan. (The client is responsible for scheduling those 3-year reviews).. We also offer plans by which we provide life and legacy planning to family members, such as adult children, parents and grandparents.
