Your Legacy. Your Wishes. Your Family.

Wills, trusts, and the paperwork that keeps your family out of a courtroom after you are gone. You work with C.W. Lachey directly, from the first meeting to the day your plan is signed.

about us
Two lawyers walking and discussing a legal case in the office hallway

One attorney drafts your plan, walks you through every line of it, and is still here years later when your family needs to know what happens next.

Boutique estate planning firm in downtown Mint Hill. C.W. Lachey drafts every plan himself, so nothing gets handed to a paralegal you have never met.

Our clients spent decades building something worth protecting. They do not want a legal lecture. They want to know their family stays out of court.

Estate work, start to finish.

Why families choose us

A boutique firm behaves differently.

Larger firms move estate plans through a production line. Here, five things stay true on every file.

The person who answers your question is the person who drafts your documents. No account manager sitting in between.

Our office is on Matthews Mint Hill Road. We know the clerks, the county process and the community we serve.

Life changes. A new grandchild, a sold property, a move. We update your plan to match at no extra charge.

When the time comes, your family sits down with us to understand exactly what happens next. Included.

You know the cost of your plan before we begin. Boutique attention without big firm billing.

Resources

Four steps, set out like the document itself.

01

The consultation

Around 45 minutes. We go through your family, your property and what you want to happen. You leave with a clear recommendation and a flat quote. No charge.

02

The drafting

We build the plan and walk you through every clause in plain language before anything is final. You change what you want changed.

03

The signing

Close up of hands signing real estate and business legal paperwork

Executed in our office with witnesses and a notary present, exactly as North Carolina requires. You go home with the originals and digital copies.

04

The years after

My father died in the middle of the COVID lockdowns at the end of 2020. It took five years to get through probate since the county processors were not available. They stuck with me all through the extended timeframe and I appreciate their commitment and professionalism.

He is out to take your money only. He filed documents against me saying I was inappropriate and triple medicating myself after financially ruining me over a construction dispute. Instead of consulting a construction attorney(I didn’t know that was a thing until recently) he consulted his buddy. Then screwed me out of thousands of dollars I didn’t have. I told him my financial situation and he took my money to hurt me. Dragged the case out years. I lost over 30,000 in value on my home and owe the contractor who did the job 8,000 and am out the attorneys fees because he just wants your money and to put on a show. He is a disgusting shallow human being. He doesn’t care who he ruins he is an attorney and no one will go against him. I am disgusted by this garbage. The process to go against him is a process. He plays games and will financially ruin you. Creep of a human with a god complex.
