Virginia Estate Planning &
Adoption Legal Services
UPDATE TO SERVICES:
The Arbor Law Firm Closed on December 31, 2025
The Arbor Law Firm is no longer accepting new Estate Planning or Adoption matters.
**Prior Clients & Families: Emailed inquiries regarding administrative follow-up/homework items for previously executed estate plans or finalized adoption matters will be answered on a weekly basis for a limited time. Please send an email to catipton@arborlawfirm.com.
Updated estate plans with new documents are considered new matters, and are no longer offered.
***Please note that due to the volume of emails received, I am unable to make referrals to other firms at this time, and I have relocated out of state and cannot provide legal advice to Virginia residents due to professional licensing limitations. There are many wonderful estate planning and domestic relations firms in Northern Virginia which may be a good match for your needs.
It has been an absolute honor to work with so many wonderful clients over the past 20+ years. Due to health concerns and family considerations out of state, I can no longer maintain a legal practice in Northern Virginia.
I thank all of my former clients for trusting me with your legal needs over the past two decades.
