About New Legacy Law
Behind the scenes at New Legacy Law
Direct Access
Direct access to the estate planning lawyer helping you throughout your entire case and beyond. No handing you off to only support staff, outsourcing your actual work, or wondering the status of your case at our firm.
No-Stress
Estate planning can be a stressful topic when you don’t have the right team on your side. We aim to culture a laid-back atmosphere without any unneeded pressure or dramatization.
Modern Convenience
While we maintain a traditional office for those who prefer it, we’ve incorporated modern convenience as well. Virtual meetings, asynchronous reviews, and mobile notarization make planning more convenient than ever.
Relationship Based
An estate plan is only as good as the Counsel that goes into creating, implementing, and maintaining it. Our goal is to help steward your legacy through an ongoing relationship, not just a one off transaction.
Your Legacy. Our Mission.
We believe in Legacy Stewardship, not selling documents
Actual Estate Planning goes far beyond just putting together some documents. Even in simple cases, the implementation and maintenance of a plan is what usually makes or breaks it when your family needs it most.
We pride ourselves on building relationships with our clients that ensures their plan will work exactly as intended when the time comes.

Bio:
Michael Jenkins serves as our managing California Partner and primary Estate Planning Lawyer who overseas every plan completed for California families. Michael aims to bring the same level of compassion that he had for his patients to the practice of law. Michael began his professional career as a registered nurse, working in cardiology and surgical services before supervising a pre and post-operative area. After starting a family and becoming enamored with the law through Caroline’s experiences, Michael decided law school and a career as an attorney was also for him.
Estate planning became personal to Michael when his father passed away suddenly without any plan in place. Since that day Michael has made it his mission to educate everyone on the need for an estate plan, provide the legal advice and guidance needed, and ensure that no family is left dealing with estate issues while grieving the loss of a loved one. If you want an attorney who truly understands firsthand the ins and outs and implications of what an estate plan can do for you and your family, you’ve found the right person!
