Estate Planning Attorney in Ogden, UT

Flat-fee estate plans for Ogden families. Wills, trusts, powers of attorney — explained in plain English.

Ogden has a character all its own along the Wasatch Front. It's a city with real economic diversity, from young professionals buying their first homes near downtown to established families in the east bench neighborhoods with significant real estate holdings. Estate planning looks different depending on where you fall in that spectrum, and we tailor our approach accordingly.

For Ogden families, we handle nearly everything virtually. The consultation, plan design, and document review all happen over video call. Our office is in North Salt Lake, about 25 minutes south, and we only need you there for the signing appointment. Many of our Ogden clients tell us the virtual approach is actually more convenient than working with a local attorney who only meets in person.

Ogden is in Weber County, so probate matters go through the Second District Court in Ogden itself, at the Weber County courthouse. If your goal is to avoid that process for your family, a properly funded trust is the most reliable way to do it.

Utah Estate Planning Law

Utah is not a community property state. Instead, it follows equitable distribution principles, which means assets acquired during marriage are divided fairly but not necessarily equally. Utah has adopted a version of the Uniform Trust Code and allows perpetual trusts. The state recently updated its Advance Health Care Directive Act, so older healthcare directive forms may not comply with current law.
