Welcome

Welcome to Legal Pathways, the law office of Julie Richardson, located in Modesto, California. We focus on offering estate planning services. What that means is that we help you get the documents in place that you will need in order to protect your loved ones when and if something happens to you – documents like a will, a trust, and a healthcare directive, among others.

Protect Your Loved Ones

That’s the most important reason of all to have a plan in place. We’ll help you through the process, make sure you understand your options, and answer all of your questions, so you can rest easy, knowing your loved ones are protected.

Protect What You’ve Earned

You’ve worked hard to ensure financial stability. Make sure that your assets go to the people you choose - and not to the government.

Protect Yourself

No one likes to think about it, but what would happen to you if you were to become incapacitated? Who would make decisions for you? Does your family know what you want? An estate plan will ensure that your wishes are honored and that your loved ones will know what you would have chosen for yourself.

“I liked how comfortable I felt with her from the moment I heard her speak. She answered every question I had about my estate plan. She gave off the impression of such an honest and bubbly person. Julie has such a beautiful personality. I’ve made two changes on my estate plan before with other attorneys, but I was never left feeling comfortable until I made changes with Julie. The whole staff is very honest and good at keeping their word, especially when it came to the prices. Other places would add on more charges, but once a price was set with Julie, it never changed. Now that my plan is complete, I feel comfortable knowing that I don’t have to worry. I got exactly what I wanted.
