About
Meet Valerie A. McCormack, Attorney and Owner of Integrative Legal
As the owner of Integrative Legal and having recently received her Master’s in Estate Planning, Valerie’s mission is to give her clients the peace of mind knowing their family will be cared for now and in the future. She understands that everyone’s situation is different and unique and has built her career on taking the time to really listen to her clients.
“People think that estate planning is a complex and difficult topic, and after we meet they end up leaving us a lot less stressed. I really take time with each client to break everything down and make sure they fully understand so it doesn’t seem as overwhelming.”
Estate planning is not a one and done service. Life changes. Laws change. We’ve got you. Valerie makes it a point to stay in touch, regularly checking in to see how you are doing and if any updates will impact you.
As a divorced mother of two small children, Valerie understands the unique worries and issues single parents face. As a lawyer, she knows what can be done to control, protect, and preserve your assets for children. Your family is our family.
