Our Legacy

First Coast Legacy Law is a veteran-owned, family-managed, faith-centered firm located on Amelia Island, in Florida's historic First Coast. Heather Houseal is a Nassau County native and licensed Florida attorney, who manages the firm with her husband Tom. As parents of three young children and small business owners in a rapidly growing environment, Heather and Tom want to ensure their neighbors are equipped to handle life's unexpected challenges. The growing needs of aging seniors, divorcing or widowed individuals, young families, and small business owners drives their mission to help everyday individuals and families define and protect their legacy for generations to come.

Our Approach

We believe that everything we have comes from God, and we are called to steward our resources well. It is our desire to partner with you as you determine how to steward your family and business assets through estate planning, probate, and trust administration. Because there is wisdom in many advisors, we will partner with your financial or tax advisor in drafting a plan that honors your values, family, generosity and the organizations you care about. We are flexible in our delivery, whether you require in-home services, virtual appointments, or want an estate planning day-retreat to Fernandina Beach, we can accommodate almost any circumstance.

 

We recognize that conversations about death, wealth transfer and difficult family circumstances can be complex and emotional. We embrace each situation with compassion and empathy as we guide you in understanding how estate, trust and probate laws impact you.We firmly believe that a legacy planned and purposed will redeem the generations that follow.
