- Windrose Law Center is a boutique law firm committed to helping families and businesses. We provide exceptional services at a reasonable fee. Rather than being the "jack of all trades" and providing legal services in a great variety of practice areas, Windrose Law Center is exclusively committed to asset protection, legacy planning, estate planning, and business planning. Kristin Moye has focused on risk management and succession planning issues since 2011. After running her own estate planning and business law firm for several years, founding attorney Kristin Moye began exclusively advising attorneys on the best ways to minimize their risk and create successful businesses. She never lost sight of her passion for estate planning and asset protection as she coached business owners on the best way to develop their succession plan. Friends still continued to approach her to help them answer the question, "What would happen to my family if I did not make it home tonight?" Ms. Moye realized that for too many people, the answer to this question for too many people is that a court would get involved. Probate might ensue. A judge could decide. Kristin expanded her scope of practice to not only help small businesses but to also help individuals and families plan their legacy and protect their assets., About Windrose Law Center, Wills, Trusts, And Estate Plans, 2019
