Siedentopf Law

10/17/2026

You’ve thought about creating an estate plan. Now put time on the calendar to actually work on it.

Siedentopf Law offers Design Meetings throughout the week with Attorney Sarah E. Siedentopf.

This is where the conversation becomes specific to you—your family, your assets, your concerns, your priorities, and what you ultimately want your plan to accomplish.

Before reserving a Design Meeting, new clients begin with a free Discovery Call with our intake team. This helps us understand what brings you to Siedentopf Law and gives you an opportunity to learn about the process before deciding whether to continue.

Design Meetings are scheduled at a flat rate. That rate doesn’t become an extra expense on top of your estate plan; it is credited toward your plan when you move forward.

You don’t need a major life event to put estate planning on your calendar.

Call (404) 736-6066 to begin.

If you’re in the hospital, who takes your kids?

Every parent dreads planning for who raises their kids if something happens to them, but there’s also the question of what happens if you’re still alive but can’t care for them?

Under the law, these situations are different.

You need someone who’s authorized to pick your kids up from school, make medical decisions for them, and keep them safe until you’re back on your feet.

This person must be named in writing, and you should have backups.

Details are in my free guide for parents of minor children.

If you’ve ever had an estate planning question you felt slightly embarrassed to ask, you’re not alone!

So I’m answering the most common questions I get asked all in one go. (Well—technically two, since I’ve split this into two parts.)

Part 1 focuses on wills, trusts, and the probate questions I hear most: https://estatelawatlanta.com/blog/estate-planning-faqs-part-1-wills-trusts-and-probate/

Life changes. Your estate plan may need to change with it.

Buying a home, getting married or divorced, welcoming children or grandchildren, starting a business, retiring, or experiencing a significant financial change can all be reasons to create or revisit your plan.

The important thing is making sure your documents still reflect your life today—not your life five or ten years ago.
Wondering whether it’s time for an update?

The Discovery Call takes about 15 minutes and costs nothing. From there, the next step for many families is sitting down with Attorney Sarah Siedentopf for a Design Meeting. That meeting is offered at a flat fee, which is then credited toward the plan you move forward with.

Call (404) 736-6066 to schedule your Discovery Call.

Every Georgia will goes through probate.

That means months in court, loss of control, and a public record anyone can read.

What most people don’t know is that a revocable living trust skips all of that, and it’s not just for multi-millionaires.
