About Justine Fanarof
I am a counselor-at-law, thought leader, and stewardship practitioner whose work lives at the intersection of law, contemplative practice, and the full complexity of what it means to carry responsibility wisely.
I am known for my capacity to hold space and depth — to create the conditions in which people feel genuinely seen and heard, and in which the harder conversations become possible. I bring joy to this work. This is not incidental to the legal work. It is the legal work.
My practice spans estate planning, governance design, mediation, mindful business counsel, and stewardship advisory. I work with individuals, families, founders, and institutions navigating decisions that carry lasting consequence.
Fanarof Law & Advisory integrates legal architecture, family governance, mediation, and contemplative practice. Estate planning, in my framework, is not primarily about documents. It is about the human architecture that makes documents function: the conversations, the preparation, and the trusted relationship that holds the whole picture before a crisis requires it. This is the practice of stewardship.
THE PERSONAL FAMILY LAWYER PROMISE
What makes PFL lawyers different?
-
How you hire us.
We begin with a comprehensive inventory of everything you own, and everyone you love, and consider it all in a working meeting, called a Family Wealth Planning Session, to guide you to clarify your financial life and legacy goals before we draft a single document.
-
How we plan.
We work with you throughout every life stage to map out the most likely scenarios for you and the people you love, planning for each as your life, the law, and your assets change over time.
-
What we protect.
Our Life & Legacy Planning process ensures everything that matters most -- from your financial assets to your values, insights, stories and experience -- are captured and documented during your life and cared for over the generations to come.
-
What you see.
Transparency in our process, and our fees … all of which are flat fees, agreed to in advance, based on your choices and with no surprises, ensuring we stay on the same side of the table - supporting you to make a lifetime of great decisions - every step of the way.
-
How we deliver.
Our systems help you get clear and organized, overcoming the exact issues that keep most estate plans from actually working when they are needed most. We help you leave your family with a gift of love, and not a mess.
-
How our plans work.
One-and-done estate plans focused only on money are a recipe for a big mess. We help you throughout every stage of life and be there for the people you love, when you can’t be.
