Planning for the future can be complex, but it doesn’t have to be stressful.

First, we listen. Then we’ll lead you through a customized process for your specific needs. Contact us to schedule a consultation.
While our education & experience allows us to go toe to toe with “big firm” estate planning lawyers, MGD Law attorneys prefer practicing in the “small firm” environment – where we can help you implement the customized estate, trust and wealth planning that is right for you, your goals, and your loved ones, rather than offering our clients standard “cookie cutter” or incomprehensible plans. We not only aim to do the right thing, but to do what’s right for you.
MGD Law was formed when leading lawyers Lisa D. McLaughlin and Beverly J. Greenley joined practices in 2018. Lisa and Bev were joined by Adrienne J. Davis, whose experience includes both private practice estate planning as well as in-house senior Counsel at a local trust company. The partners are supported by an expert team of attorneys, paralegals and staff, who are all committed to providing smart, practical, personalized service.
We offer expert guidance in wills, trusts, and powers of attorney to guide you in designating responsible parties for financial and health affairs during incapacity, emergency and post-death.
If you have been named as a legal representative in a trust or will, we offer legal advice to ensure compliance with your duties and responsibilities.
We are experienced St. Louis estate planning attorneys, well equipped to advise you on a variety of tax issues related to estates, gifts, and family trusts.
We can help families and businesses ensure a smooth transition of wealth and business roles to the next generation, minimizing taxes and conflict.
We consult with individuals to help them design and establish nonprofit and charitable entities, and with organizations about planned giving issues, and provide continuing tax and compliance advice.
If you are a beneficiary or family member of a recently deceased individual, we can help with that individual’s post death administration of assets held in the estate or trust.
We are located in downtown Clayton – and proud to be part of the St. Louis legal and non-profit community. Here, we serve a wide range of clients, both local and nationwide.
