About
I am an Orange County business and estate planning attorney, business owner, and mom of four great kids focused on helping families and businesses achieve their dreams. I excel in helping families meet their financial, legal, and moral obligations to their loved ones by creating estate, business, and life plans that ensure their family's complete protection and well-being. I created Meier Law Firm to be unlike many traditional law firms that bill by the hour and simply create documents. Meier Law Firm offers unique flat-fee estate planning packages that not only include all of the typical estate planning documents such as wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and health care documents, but also include planning for life, trust funding, a Kids ICE plan that ensures kids will never be in temporary foster care even for one second, legacy preservation so that parents can pass down their values, morals, and dreams to their kids, unlimited free phone calls and emails, free three-year reviews of estate plans so each plan keeps up with the changes in one's life, and more! Meier Law Firm includes all of these essential estate planning services for about the same flat-fee cost that most firms charge for traditional estate planning documents alone.No matter where your family finds itself today, I can help you create a real plan that will achieve your goals and dreams, and protect your loved ones no matter what life brings.Great families plan for great futures...who are you planning for?Visit us today at www.meierfirm.com, call us a 949.718.0420, or e-mail us at [email protected] to discover the Meier Law Firm difference.Mention that you found us on AVVO and receive a FREE Achieve Your Dreams Planning Session (a $750 value).You can schedule an Achieve Your Dreams Planning Session online at http://www.meierfirm.com/Estate-Planning-Consult-Form.php.Specialties:Estate PlanningEstate Planning for FamiliesEstate Planning for Minor ChildrenEstate Planning for Business OwnersEstate Planning after DivorceEstate Planning with AttorneysEstate Planning with Financial AdvisorsEstate Planning with Life Insurance ProfessionalsEstate Planning with AccountantsEstate Planning to Protect AssetsEstate Planning for Great FuturesWills & TrustsEstate PlansAsset ProtectionBusiness Succession PlanningBusiness PlanningBusiness CounselingBusiness Formation

Reviews
Laura has an excellent way with people and made us feel comfortable with the entire estate planning process from beginning to end. She guided us on the Power of Attorneys and Trust Plan every step of the way. We have a great peace of mind knowing this is taken care of and that she is available if we have any questions in the future.
Laura could not be more amazing! She helped us set up our complete estate plan and made what could have been a very dry and boring process, fun and seamless. Laura helped explain all of the different parts of a complete estate plan and made sure to really explore what is important to us, so that we could make the BEST plan for our family. She really took the time to get to know us and crafted a thoughtful and comprehensive estate plan. The entire team at Meier Law Firm was warm and welcoming, and I should note that the office is cozy and really beautiful. We felt very well taken care of.
We used Josh, Laura, Sarah, and the whole team to set up our estate plan. They did a great job. They even worked around my husband's hours at work. They are friendly and explain things well. We highly reccomend them. And their receptionist Bonnie is so nice!!
We used the Meier Law Firm team to prepare our trust for our young family and had a great experience. Laura was very kind, as is her husband Josh.
Laura Meier and the Meier Law Firm were an excellent choice for trusts and estates planning, specifically in the area of special needs trusts. Laura was extremely knowledgeable in her field, and I found her to be responsive and personable in this very sensitive area of the law. You will feel very well-represented at the Meier Law Firm and I recommend the firm and Laura 100%
Laura made the process of creating a living trust easy. She made us comfortable through every step because she's confident and knowledgeable. I recommend all of my friends and family to Laura. She's worth the drive to Orange County (if you live in LA)!
Laura and her firm made a daunting process understandable and even enjoyable. We approached Laura Meier to help us with our estate planning. We were new to the state of California and had no references for a estate planning lawyer. What was particularly helpful was that Laura walked us through the process and had us tackle the items to be resolved in a approachable manner. Knowing that protecting our children was the most important thing for us, Laura first worked with us to establish guardians and backups and helped us understand what each party would do so that we could explain it to our family. Laura took the time to understand our financial goals and structured our Will and Trust documents to reflect those, and ensure our legacy was maintained and our children provided for. Laura helped us contact all of our financial institutions to fund our trust and provided us with specific task lists that kept us honest and made the process much easier to handle. Lastly, Laura offered us a very special service, a family interview documenting our wishes and desires for our children, archived with all of our legal documents to act as a guide for our children and their guardians and also to capture our feelings after going through this process. I always viewed estate planning as a necessity and knew we needed to get around to it. Laura stressed the importance and helped us really own the decisions we were making. many of the items we had to consider were very serious and these discussions can make you feel very mortal. Laura always gave us the time and space to determine our wishes and while she would offer advice and direction, she was never pushy. What continues to strike me is that Laura is a parent first and lawyer second, the perspective she brings is relate-able and comforting. I would recommend her to anyone and would continue to use her services.
Working with Laura was very easy. She kept me informed and brought everything necessary to our meetings. This eliminated the need for multiple unnecessary meetings. Laura even provided her own Notary!! This is very nice considering everyone's busy schedules. Thank you for the opportunity to recommend Laura!!
As a single adoptive parent, being prepared for an emergency was very important to me. Accidentally finding Laura Meier was like hitting the lottery! Laura is one of the most caring and thorough people I have ever met, which is not the typical description of an attorney that automatically comes to my mind. From the very first session, I felt she was truly committed to MY wishes and MY peace of mind. It was obvious that she was not someone who cranks out “one size fits all” forms for a fee. Being a mother herself, she was aware of many more considerations and options to review. Her questionnaire and personal guidance helped me to make clear choices in every area that would affect my 9 year old son, should something unexpected happen to me. The end product and my overall experience with Laura GREATLY exceeded any of my expectations (even now, a year later). Should anyone think that this glowing review is too good to be true…I’d say that you have never met Laura Meier! She is definitely worth finding, especially if you are a parent! Thanks for everything, Laura!
We had a wonderful experience working with the Meier Law Firm on our family trust. Laura is incredibly warm and knowledgeable which are two very important qualities when you are putting together a family trust. You need to have someone who knows what they are talking about while still showing compassion and sensitivity for such a delicate topic.
