Hermance Law is Now
The Heritance Lawyers
A name that reflects our growth, our team, and our commitment to supporting families through every stage of life.
Same team. Same values. A name that reflects who we are today.
Why We Updated Our Name
Over the years, The Heritance Lawyers (formerly Hermance Law) has grown into more than a traditional estate planning firm. Today, we are a collaborative legal team supporting individuals and families across estate planning, trust administration, probate, and ongoing legal guidance.
Our clients rely on us not just for documents, but for long-term support, clarity, and trusted guidance during important life transitions.
The name The Heritance Lawyers reflects that evolution.
What Does “Heritance” Mean?
- Heritance” is inspired by the words heritage and inheritance.It represents:
- The values families pass down
- The protection and planning behind those decisions
- The continuity and care that extends across generations
While inheritance focuses on what is transferred, Heritance reflects the full journey—planning, guidance, and support every step of the way.
More Than Estate Planning
While estate planning remains a core part of what we do, our work extends far beyond creating documents.
We support clients with:
- Estate planning for individuals and families
- Trust administration and guidance after a loss
- Probate and court-related matters
- Ongoing updates and legal support as life changes
Our approach is designed to provide continuity, structure, and peace of mind over time—not just at one moment.
A Team Supporting You at Every Step
One of the most important changes over the years is how we serve our clients.
You are not supported by a single attorney—you are supported by a team of legal professionals working together to ensure your plan is handled with care, accuracy, and attention.
The Heritance Lawyers reflects the people behind the work.

What Remains the Same
While our name is changing, our commitment to you is not.
You can continue to expect:
- The same trusted team
- The same leadership and values
- The same level of care and professionalism
- The same dedication to your family’s needs
There is nothing you need to do as a result of this change.
Looking Ahead
The Heritance Lawyers represents where we are today—and where we are going.
Our focus remains on:
- Providing clear, thoughtful legal guidance
- Supporting families through life’s transitions
- Building long-term relationships based on trust and reliability
We are proud to continue serving our community under a name that reflects the full scope of our work.
