Our Process

Here’s how our estate planning process works for families across Dublin and Central Ohio:

Free Discovery Session

It starts with a no-cost, 90-minute consultation, usually in our Dublin office on Bradenton Ave, right near the Coffman Park splash pad. You’ll meet with an intake specialist, not a salesperson. We listen first, ask questions about your family, goals, and finances, and outline the process in plain English. Bring any and all questions you might have. 

Customized Planning, Step by Step

You’ll receive a custom roadmap based on your situation. We explain every option: wills, revocable trusts, irrevocable trusts, powers of attorney, special needs plans, and Medicaid strategies. 

We’ll walk you through scenarios that matter to Dublin residents, like protecting your new home in Tartan Fields, or planning for blended families after a Dublin City Schools graduation.

Draft, Review, and Sign

You get to review drafts in advance, at your own pace. Since every cost and step is discussed before you sign anything, there are no surprises. Once everything is ready, you’ll come in to sign with your attorney and a notary. We hand you a binder with every document your family or executor could need, organized, labeled, and explained.

Ongoing Support

Questions after you leave? Need to update a trust or power of attorney after a move or family change? Call us anytime. Most calls get a live answer by a real person, and emails never go ignored. We know life in Dublin moves fast, so do we.

Client Stories & Results

  • Donna M. from Dublin shared that her family’s estate planning experience was made “so much easier” because she left with a complete, organized binder containing every essential document.
  • After updating her plan near Historic Dublin, Sarah S. emphasized that she never felt rushed or pressured and appreciated how helpful and friendly the staff were throughout the process.
  • Patricia G., whose mother’s home is close to Coffman Park, said our team created a plan that protected her mother’s assets while confirming she received the care she needed.
  • Jennifer L. described how, following a sudden change in her father’s health, our quick action and support made a real difference for her family in a stressful moment.
  • Tom S. reported that every email and phone call was answered promptly and that our support continued even years after signing his plan.

We take pride in the trust that Dublin families place in us. Our results: fewer court dates, smaller legal bills, and loved ones who know exactly where things stand.

Meet Your Lead Attorney: Timothy Jarvis

Tim Jarvis

Timothy Jarvis began his professional journey as a financial advisor after earning a Bachelor of Business Administration in Business Management from Ohio University. His career path took a pivotal turn when his grandmother was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. 

Taking care of her ignited his passion for elder law, leading him to pursue a Juris Doctorate at Northern Kentucky University’s Salmon P. Chase College of Law. 

In 2003, Timothy founded Jarvis Law Office with a mission to assist older adults and their families in planning for the future and managing long-term healthcare challenges. His approach integrates legal, financial, and emotional support, focusing on honoring clients’ wishes in all aspects of estate planning. 

Under his leadership, the firm has expanded to three locations, including Dublin, and comprises a team of over 35 professionals. Timothy oversees all critical aspects of operations, driving the strategic vision for continued growth. 

Beyond his professional endeavors, Timothy values lifelong learning and personal development. He enjoys outdoor activities like hiking and cycling, and cherishes time spent with his three children.
