Magnolia Legal

My wife Amanda and I have had the pleasure of working with Magnolia Legal in two distinct capacities, and they have exceeded our expectations in both areas. Estate Planning with Sonya Linton: We've worked with Sonya twice now, and she has been outstanding. She first helped us establish our comprehensive estate plan, including our wills, powers of attorney, healthcare directives, living will, and beneficiary designations. A few years later, when our needs evolved, Sonya guided us through creating a revocable living trust to better protect our family assets and establish clear plans for our children. Her expertise made complex legal matters straightforward and manageable. Real Estate Law with Maggie Davis: As franchisees of H&H Bagels, we engaged Maggie to review our commercial lease agree

I can’t recommend Sonya and Magnolia Legal highly enough. The professionalism, thoroughness and attention to detail are top notch. Sonya’s inclusive and collaborative approach to setting up a comprehensive estate planning strategy — which can be a complicated, delicate and emotional process — makes you feel as if you’ve gained a trusted friend at the end of the experience! She prioritizes ensuring that clients have the time to evaluate every scenario, and provides thoughtful insight to assist in decision-making.

My husband and I are very happy we chose Sonya Linton to help us with our estate planning. She's knowledgeable and highly ethical, and she made us feel safe in discussing sensitive concerns. Sonya was wonderful at explaining the concepts and language of estate planning. She was also able to depart from the esoteric and give us down-to-earth practical advice when it was needed. Finally, Sonya has an energetic, positive outlook. We always came away from talking with her about what are normally thought of as serious concerns (we were talking about death, after all) feeling like a weight had been lifted. We highly recommend her. Debbie Dawson and Rich Marion

Happy to have had Magnolia Legal (and Sonya Linton especially!) handle our most recent will updates. We just lived to North Carolina and needed to update our documents. Sonya is extremely knowledgable and she was very thorough with our estate work. We also needed to have additional estate work done due to ownership of a property overseas and she helped us get through that process as well. I highly recommend Sonya as well as her law partner, Maggie Davis!

Hiring an estate lawyer is not exactly a for-funsies activity, especially following an unexpected death. Maggie and Sonya helped me untangle the confusing and stressful landscape after my father died. Both focused on showing me all of my options and helping me figure out what was right for me, not selling me on a service or copy-paste approach. They continue to give me the gift of calm clarity after a real gut punch of a life event. It's terrible to navigate all the bureaucracy following the unexpected death of a parent, and if you have to do that, do it with Magnolia.
