At Salem Law, your future is our priority. From our Winston-Salem, North Carolina, law office, we guide people through every aspect of the estate planning process and elder law issues. Our attorneys value their position as a trusted source of counsel and support as clients make decisions surrounding the following:

  • Wills and trusts
  • Probate and estate administration
  • Powers of attorney and guardianship
  • Advanced health care directives
  • Medicaid planning and veterans benefits
  • Business, LGBT and special needs planning

We founded our law office on integrity and professionalism. Every client receives straightforward advice: the same advice we would give ourselves in the same situation. We believe in getting to know the people who are placing their futures in our hands. Because we are a smaller practice, we are able to devote personalized attention to each client.

Having peace of mind is perhaps the most important aspect of leaving a legacy or planning for the unexpected. The team at our law office has decades of combined experience creating strategies for wealth preservation and long-term care. We consider it a privilege to be asked to be a part of our clients' lives and strive to build relationships that will last for years to come.

How do I choose a lawyer?

Consider the following:

Comfort Level
- Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?

Credentials
- How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?

Cost
- How are the lawyer's fees structured - hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?

City
- Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?

Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?

Here are a few to get you started:

  • How long have you been in practice?
  • How many cases like mine have you handled?
  • How often do you settle cases out of court?
  • What are your fees and costs?
  • What are the next steps?

Want to check lawyer discipline?

It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:

  • Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
  • Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
  • Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
