Safe Harbor Estate Law - Estate Planning & Elder Law

We came to know Ben Francis and Safe Harbor Estate Law when attending a seminar about trusts. I had been interested in creating a trust as added protection for the family so that my wishes would be attended to and the family’s needs covered when I pass. The Safe Harbor team shepherded us through multiple steps from intake to decisioning and data gathering all the way to signing. We built up confidence along the way that we were making the right decisions. I feel blessed to have Safe Harbor in my corner, supporting my family through this journey. I highly recommend Safe Harbor for their professionalism, genuine care, and approach to estate planning. You are in good hands here!

Safe Harbor Estate Law was wonderful to work with. Not only is the staff knowledgeable on the subject of how to structure your wishes and needs, they are attentive to the concerns and emotions that may surface during the process. No question is stupid to ask during this process and they go out of their way to ensure your level of comfort is met. The overall process was seamless and the communication from staff with confirmation of understanding was excellent. I would highly recommend working with them if you are looking to do a trust, will, living will, healthcare directive, power of attorney, asset protection, and more.

I worked with Kate Eidem and Makenzie Zenisek at Safe Harbor Estate Law in Little Canada/St. Paul starting in early 2025 to navigate a very complex elder care situation. They were instrumental in guiding us through the Minnesota Elderly Waiver (EW) process, which involved significant financial hurdles and family volatility. While the process is a major investment, Kate and Makenzie’s dedication, professional tenacity, and deep expertise were the keys to our success. They managed to secure a favorable outcome that provides long-term stability for my family. If you are looking for a team in the Twin Cities that can handle complicated estate or elder care situations with true persistence, I highly recommend their office on Rice Street.

My husband and I recently completed the process of establishing our revokable trust with Safe Harbor. The entire process, from initial informational meeting to signing, was easy and efficient. We entered knowing very little, and now we feel confident in our knowledge of what the trust provides. I feel good knowing we've put a system in place that will make our end-of-life arrangements as efficient and easy for our children as possible. The Safe Harbor staff is knowledgeable, considerate, and helpful, and I recommend Safe Harbor to anyone who wants to protect their assets and have their end-of-life wishes followed with minimal burden on loved ones.

From start to finish Safe Harbor Estate Law was a blessing to work with. They walked my wife and I through the steps and the entire estate planning process smoothly and with great knowledge. Every employee involved with our process was friendly, knowledgeable and professional. We are so happy we chose Safe Harbor as our legal representation. Thank you Safe Harbor!
