Serving Montgomery, Ohio

Estate planning next door to the Heritage District.

Montgomery is Blue Ash's neighbor—the two share the Sycamore school district, a stretch of Montgomery Road, and a lot of back-and-forth daily life. For Montgomery families, Harlow Law Office is about as local as an attorney gets without being inside the Heritage District itself.

An established community with established questions

Montgomery is one of the older, more settled communities on Cincinnati's northeast side—a city of long-tenured homeowners, storefronts and restaurants along the Heritage District, and houses that families have held for decades. Many residents made a will years ago and have not looked at it since. Others are entering retirement and want their documents, beneficiaries, and property titles to finally agree with each other.

There is also a harder pattern Jennifer sees often. With Bethesda North Hospital right in town, some families discover mid-crisis that no one holds a health care power of attorney or living will for the person in the hospital bed. Getting those documents in place early is one of the kindest things you can do for the people who would have to decide.

Probate for Montgomery residents

Montgomery sits in Hamilton County, so estates are generally administered through the county probate court in downtown Cincinnati. Careful planning—updated documents, coordinated beneficiary designations, correctly titled property—can reduce how much of an estate needs the court at all.
