When most people choose an executor, they focus on who they trust.
But there’s another important question to ask:

👉 How could this decision impact the relationships around it?

In this month’s One Minute Tip, Colin shares one of the most commonly overlooked factors when selecting the person who will carry out your estate plan - and why having open conversations with your legal team about potential concerns before they become problems can make all the difference.

The right executor doesn’t just help manage the estate. They can help preserve peace within the family, too.

One of the things we hear most from clients is how much peace of mind comes from having an attorney who’s available, responsive, and willing to walk alongside them through difficult situations - not just hand them paperwork and disappear.

We’re grateful for every family that trusts our team during some of life’s hardest moments.

Before you head out on vacation this summer… quick question.

If something unexpected happened while you were away,
would everything be handled the way you’d want?

Most people assume “probably”… but aren’t 100% sure.

A few small details - like having the right documents in place or someone able to step in if needed - can make all the difference.

Not the most exciting part of trip prep, but definitely one of the most important.

School’s out for summer ☀️

You’ve planned everything for the next few months…
but have you planned for the “what if”?

A lot of families have an answer in mind.
Far fewer have it clearly documented.

It’s not the easiest conversation - but it’s one of the most important.

What started as a new chapter after years of being a stay-at-home mom turned into a career centered around guidance, compassion, and helping people feel less overwhelmed during life’s biggest transitions.

At Colin Smith Law, it’s never just paperwork - it’s people, families, and real stories. And Mary Kay is a huge part of making clients feel supported every step of the way. 🤍

We asked everyone on the team (including Colin) one question:

“Describe the firm in 3 words.”

Some answers made us laugh.
Some were spot on.
All of them say a lot about what it’s like to work with our team.

Turns out… the experience you have when you work with our team matters just as much as the outcome.

Life doesn’t stay the same - and your estate plan shouldn’t either.

Big moments like getting married, having a child, buying a home, or starting a business are all signs it’s time to revisit your plan. Even smaller changes can have a big impact.

Not sure if it’s time? That’s usually your sign it may be time to at least have a conversation. Give our team a call today.

Your graduate just turned 18… and a lot changes overnight 🎓

Not just for them - but for you, too.

• They can make their own medical decisions
• You may not have access to their records
• Financial decisions are now theirs
• Emergencies look different

Stepping into adulthood comes with more independence and more complexity than most families expect.

The good news? A few simple conversations now can go a long way in helping everyone feel more prepared and confident heading into this next chapter.

Because sending them off should feel exciting, not uncertain.

We handle serious matters… but we’re not always serious!
Real people. Real answers. Real conversations.

We sat down with Jyme and asked the hard-hitting questions you actually want answered 😉. From desk snacks to daily routines, meet the team behind the scenes - and see who’s running on coffee vs. a solid Spotify playlist 🎧
