About us
Protection Built on Trust, Not Just Paperwork.
Our Mission
At Wakefield Law, PC, we believe that estate planning is about more than avoiding court—it is about providing your family with a roadmap for life’s most difficult moments. Since 2004, we have sat across the table from families navigating the complexities of aging, business succession, and loss. Our goal is to ensure that when the unexpected happens, your only focus is on your loved ones, not the legal system.
The Wakefield Way
We don’t just “file deeds”; we build lifelong partnerships. We specialize in creating Revocable Living Trusts that serve as a living shield for your assets. Whether you are protecting a family business, ensuring your children’s inheritance is managed wisely, or navigating a journey through dementia, our team—led by dedicated advocates like Paul G. Wakefield & Connie Meech—provides the expertise and kindness required to see you through.

-
Transparent Foundations: No billing surprises. We offer a flat-fee comprehensive estate plan because peace of mind shouldn’t come with a ticking clock.

Active Trust Funding: A trust is only effective if it is properly “funded.” We don’t just hand you a binder and hope for the best; we take an active role in transferring your home, business, and assets into your trust. From preparing deeds to providing specific instructions for your bank, we ensure your Revocable Living Trust is actually reinforced with your assets.
EXCELLENT Based on 26 reviews Posted on James IllikmanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The Wakefield team made my estate planning experience easy and efficient. I highly recommend them.Posted on Debbie JohnsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Paul and his office staff are very professional and answered all questions. They had sent me questions to review and on first visit Paul looked at current will, which was inadequate in meeting my needs and explained components of a trust and we discussed how I wanted trust to be set up. Next visit we reviewed final product and I agreed and left with notarized trust documents. I would highly recommend this law group for setting up a trust.Posted on Lisa JohnsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Posted on Tom FreedTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Paul and his staff did an excellant job in preparing updated Will and Trust documents as we moved to MI from out of state. He reviewed prior documents we had and noted changes necessary to comply with MI law. The result was a set of detailed documents and clear instructions on steps I needed to take so that assets were property recorded into the trust. I had a wonderful experience and would trust Paul Wakefield for any similar type of legal needs.Posted on Kevin HearnTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
