Estate planning and intellectual property decisions are, at their core, human decisions — composed slowly, held for decades, and tested only at the worst possible moment.
Our practice rests on a simple commitment: we do not promise automation we do not operate; we promise attention, and enforceable documents. Every engagement begins with listening — to the facts of a family, the shape of a founder's cap table, the tempo of a life that a plan must outlast. Only then do we draft.
That sequence matters. A will drafted without knowing the family is a form; a licensing agreement drafted without knowing the product is a liability. We are unwilling to trade the minutes spent listening for the months spent unwinding what a generic template has failed to capture.
One firm, five disciplines.
Moye Law practices at the intersection of five disciplines — estate planning, intellectual property, elder law, digital assets, and art & entertainment — because the questions our clients bring do not arrive one at a time. A founder's IP assignment has estate consequences. A patriarch's trust has art-law consequences. A family steward's Medicaid plan has healthcare-proxy consequences. Composed counsel holds these together.
Counsel is composed — never siloed.
We answer the phone as one attorney. That is the unfashionable thing about this firm, and it is the thing we refuse to trade.
On documents that hold.
The documents we draft are intended to be boring. They are intended to be read, in thirty years, by someone who never met us, and to do exactly what the client said they should do, without surprise or theatre. [1]An interesting document is usually an expensive document. We are happy to be the unglamorous part of a family's legacy.
Clients occasionally arrive hoping for a conclusion; we offer a composition. A plan with parts that agree. A trust that references the will that references the digital-asset inventory that references the engagement letter that was signed, in ink, on a Tuesday in Harrison.
