Hello, I'm Marne Pehrson, Esq.
I help homeowners and parents think and plan ahead so they have peace of mind and confidence.
As a parent, the thought of leaving children behind due to an accident or sudden illness can be stressful and anxiety-inducing. Estate planning answers the hard questions: who will take care of them, who will raise them, who will provide for them, and how your assets should support them.
Let's make a planProtect Your Family And Estate
Parents of minor children
Properly nominate guardians for minor children so your loved ones are not left with confusion, court involvement, or a mess.
Powers of attorney
Prepare durable powers of attorney and health care directives so trusted people can act if you cannot speak or sign for yourself.
Trust administration
Help successor trustees understand duties, deadlines, family communication, and the next legal steps after a loved one dies.
Probate guidance
Keep family out of court when possible, and when probate is unavoidable, move through the process with steady legal guidance.
No Mess Left Behind

Proper legal planning helps keep your family out of court and gives decision-makers a clear path when emotions are high.

Most Commonly Asked Questions
Isn't estate planning only for really wealthy people?
Absolutely not. Everyone has an estate, whether it is $20 in the bank or millions. Your estate includes accounts, real estate, vehicles, personal property, business interests, and more.
What is estate planning? Isn't a will enough?
Estate planning determines where your assets go when you pass away and under what circumstances. A will can name guardians and beneficiaries, but a will alone must go through probate court and may not control every asset.
Can I do it on my own for less?
You can do many things on your own for less, but estate planning mistakes can leave families in conflict and in court. Attorney guidance helps documents match your goals and the law.
How long does the process take?
Legacy Bridge Legal does the heavy lifting. Completed estate planning documents are handled through three simple steps that usually take four weeks or less.
Do you work with clients from other states?
Estate planning is state-specific. The firm works with people who live in or own property in Utah or Arizona, and can refer you to another attorney if you need help in a different state.
