In this episode of Lawyers Who Care, host Andrew Samalin sits down with Trish Yeatts Butcher, attorney and founder of Arch Legacy Firm in Watkinsville, Georgia. Trish shares her powerful personal story of how her own family’s probate battle—and the devastating costs that came with it—drove her to dedicate her career to estate planning for young families, professionals, and those with special needs trusts.

She also discusses the importance of avoiding probate, setting up living trusts properly, and finding counsel that genuinely cares about your family’s future.
