About Our Firm
Edward S. Clay, P.A. is a full service estate planning law firm.  Estate planning is a process designed to improve the quality of life for you and your loved ones.  Estate planning can empower you to control how your assets are used in the event of an illness as well as how your assets, both financial and non-financial, are to be passed to future generations.

We pride ourselves on providing personal assistance to clients to control their property while they are alive and well; plan for themselves and their loved ones in the event of mental disability; to give what they have to whom they want, when they want, the way they want; all while assuring that their wisdom is passed to their people along with their wealth.  

Our firm emphasizes the need for client counselling and education on how your estate plan works and on what actions you need to take during your lifetime to assure that your estate plan performs in the manner you expect.  The administration of your plan is as essential as the quality of the legal documents themselves.

This commitment to service requires a higher level of client support.  Our clients' estate plans are designed to succeed beyond what is common in today's marketplace.  Our level of service extends beyond the four corners of the documents.  We're about helping create plans that actually work in a time of crisis. 

Our Philosophy
Our philosophy emphasizes the importance of people and their relationships.  We employ the most current estate planning techniques and documents, completely customized to the unique needs and circumstances of our clients and their loved ones.  Beyond quality legal documents, we are committed to the practical mechanics that make your plan work when you aren't there to have hands-on control.  This administrative and educational emphasis helps to ensure that your estate planning goals are achieved.
