25 Years of Trusted Missouri Estate Counsel
A Firm Built on Relationships, Not Transactions
Moelder Law was built on a simple conviction: every Missouri family deserves a plan as thoughtful and unique as they are — regardless of the size of their estate.
For 25 years, we have guided Missouri families through the most consequential decisions of their lives. From the family with a modest home and a retirement account to the multi-generational estate spanning several states, we bring the same depth of care, expertise, and discretion to every matter we handle.
We are a full-service estate planning and probate firm. That means we handle everything — wills, trusts, powers of attorney, beneficiary designations, probate administration, and trust administration — under one roof, with attorneys who know your file and your family.
Our clients include Missouri families at every asset level, out-of-state trustees managing Missouri trusts, and individuals navigating the probate process after the loss of a loved one. Whatever brings you to us, you will be treated with the discretion and personal attention your situation deserves.
Our Core Values
Discretion
Estate matters are among the most personal decisions a family makes. We handle every engagement with strict confidentiality and the utmost respect for your privacy.
Tailored Counsel
We do not use templates. Every plan is built from the ground up around your family's specific assets, relationships, goals, and concerns.
Full-Service Depth
From the first consultation to final distribution, we handle every aspect of your estate plan or probate matter — no hand-offs, no gaps.
Accessibility
We serve families with $50 to $5 million in assets. Thoughtful estate planning is not a luxury reserved for the wealthy — it is a necessity for every family.
Missouri Expertise
Missouri estate and probate law is our sole focus. We know the statutes, the courts, and the practical realities that affect Missouri families and trustees.
Long-Term Relationships
Many of our clients have been with us for decades. We update plans as families grow and circumstances change — because a good estate plan is never truly finished.
