Compassionate, customized care for your family's probate and estate planning needs
Probating a loved ones estate can be an overwhelming task, but it doesn't have to be. We can help you determine what, if any, formal probate proceeding is necessary and help you through the process each step of the way.
No two families are alike. Whether you are just starting out on your own, starting a family, or planning your legacy, we can help you set up a unique plan that ensures your wishes are carried out now and in the future.
Whenever possible, adult guardianships should be avoided. However, in certain circumstances, guardianship is the only option to protect and care for loved ones. If you or someone you know may need a guardianship, please contact our office for a consultation on guardianships and other possible options.
Special Needs Estate Planning focuses on providing for the special needs of our loved ones with disabilities when we are no longer there to organize and advocate on their behalf.
EXCELLENTBased on 6 reviewsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Diane SChristina was referred to us from a friend. She was extremely helpful in creating our wills & all the ancillary documents we needed. She was efficient, very easy to work with & spent a lot of time explaining everything & answering our many questions. The cost was reasonable & we would definitely recommend!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Morgan YbarraChristina Brengel came to our rescue! My husband and I planned a trip out of the country for the first time since having our son. Our son was not coming with us, and we realized last minute that we didn't have all of the proper paperwork in place in the event that something would happen to either of us. Christina understood the urgency of what we needed, and she worked tirelessly to ensure that everything was in order before we left. I will definitely use her services again in the future, and I highly recommend her to anyone that needs an incredibly caring and competent attorney in your corner.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Andy von kanelFirst impression: she’s incredibly friendly and comfortable, with a skill & strength that is immediately unsubtle. The end result: a supportive and functional blended family. Christina has earned five stars from beginning to end. It was plain during the first conversation I was secure, protected, and informed. She maintained this foundation through the entire process. While wholly professional, at all times her attention felt personal. Family legal proceedings are inherently vulnerable, and there is no lawyer I’d rather have by my side if I find myself in need of counsel again.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Debra SimpsonMy husband and I updated our wills, living wills, and medical power of attorney. We have been very satisfied. Everything was handled efficiently and correctly. I have given Ms. Brengel's information out to a few people who have expressed interest in doing the same.

It was our first time traveling and leaving our baby with grandparents. We thought it would be best to have a will in place before we left and she answered all our questions and guided us through the process patiently! Thank you, Christina! Your expertise is much appreciated.
