100% virtual · Serving all of Washington via Zoom
Bryant Law PLLC is a virtual estate planning firm built for Seattle families who want attorney-drafted documents, transparent pricing, and a convenient process. Attorney Ann Bryant drafts custom wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and advance directives tailored to your family’s specific situation.
Why It Matters
If you pass away without a will or trust in Washington and never named a guardian, a court may need to decide who raises your children. State law also determines how probate assets are distributed, and your family may need to navigate court and financial institution procedures to access accounts. RCW Title 11 governs these outcomes, and the statutes don’t account for blended families, unmarried partners, estranged relatives, or anything unique about your situation.
The process can also become public, drawn-out, and expensive for the people you were trying to protect.
None of this has to happen, but it starts with a few honest questions:
Does your current plan reflect who you’d want making medical decisions for you if you couldn’t?
If you have children, is a legal guardian named, or is that still “on the list”?
If you own a home in Seattle, do you know whether your family would face probate before they could access it?
Meet the Attorney
Ann P. Bryant graduated cum laude from Roger Williams University School of Law, clerked for the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington, and worked as a staff attorney for the Urban Justice Center in New York before founding her own practice. Bryant is licensed to practice in Washington and New York, and she works directly with every client from the first Zoom consultation through signing.
People searching for a wills attorney in Seattle are usually parents, homeowners, partners, and caregivers who want to know their family will be okay. That’s why every engagement starts with a free Zoom consultation focused on understanding your goals. The entire process is handled virtually, so Seattle clients can work with a licensed Washington estate planning attorney from home, without rearranging their schedule.
The Process
Step 01
Schedule a no-pressure Zoom call to discuss your family, your assets, and your goals. By the end of the call, you’ll have a clearer understanding of which type of plan may fit your situation and what to expect in terms of timeline and cost.
Step 02
Every document in your plan is custom-drafted by Bryant based on what you discussed. Your Custom Will Package, or Custom Trust Package, includes the supporting documents described in that package, including powers of attorney and your advance directive, tailored to Washington state requirements.
Step 03
You’ll meet with Bryant again over Zoom to walk through every document before anything is finalized. Ask questions, request changes, and take the time you need. Then receive signing guidance, executed copies, and clear instructions for storing your plan securely.
Pricing
For many Seattle families, the starting point is deciding whether a will-based or trust-based plan makes more sense. Both approaches protect your family and document your wishes, but they differ in how assets transfer after you pass and whether probate court is required.
A will-based plan may be appropriate for families with relatively straightforward assets and estate planning needs. Families with significant assets, multiple beneficiaries, complex family relationships, or specific instructions for managing assets for children may benefit more from a trust-based plan. A properly funded trust-based estate plan can offer smoother asset transfer and help avoid probate for assets held in the trust. It can also provide greater privacy and clearer instructions for both incapacity and end-of-life planning, especially when real estate is involved.
