NW Legacy Law Center P.S. (Winner)
Based in Vancouver, NW Legacy Law Center offers complimentary workshops, a complimentary “vision meeting” and fixed-pricing estate planning options, which owner Thomas Hackett says puts him in charge of the quickest, most efficient path to completion of an estate plan and takes the worry out of fee-by-the hour billing for his clients.
“Our plan is to offer a simplified process for estate planning that tackles the complicated issues in a way that makes it easy for people to get their estate plan in place,” Hackett said.
Currently employing himself and client services director, Nicolle Pratt, Hackett collaborates with other local attorneys in their respective specialty to address specific concerns such as real estate and business succession on a case-by-case basis, which allows NW Legacy Law to choose the best attorney for every project.
Looking ahead, the company plans to add an extra administrative staff person in next 30 to 60 days. Toward the end of the year, the firm expects to add another higher level support person. These two additions, Hackett said, will increase the firm’s capacity by about 200 percent.
In its first year, NW Legacy Law Center was named Best in Business (Law Firm) by readers of the Vancouver Business Journal and this year was named Best of Clark County (Attorney) by readers of The Columbian.
