About Susan Ford
I am a Portland, Oregon-based business and estate planning lawyer, with over 25 years of experience working with businesses of all sizes. As a former shareholder at one of Portland's largest law firms, I started Res Nova Law to better serve my business clients with more personalized service.
I work with business owners throughout the lifecycle of their business, from startup to expansion to exit and beyond. One of the most important ways I serve these clients is by helping them protect the investments they make in their businesses and legacy through proper estate planning.
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.
