Lawyer Profile

My name is Elizabeth (Liz) Smith. I am an estate planning attorney serving Southeast Alaska. I help clients learn about the process their assets must go through upon your death, and then to create a plan if you want to do something different than what happens without any planning. Planning includes education, wills, trusts, and other services to help you and your family prepare.

I graduated from Vermont Law School in 2010 and spent over nine years working for the State of Alaska. I held many positions including Assistant Public Defender and Assistant Attorney General. I took pride in serving the State, but I was frustrated by many of the constraints placed on me, and I nearly became disillusioned with being an attorney altogether. Unfortunately, usually attorneys are not called until after there is already a problem. I wanted to help people plan early and to avoid those problems.

I started my own law practice in 2019 and I focus on helping clients stay out of court and out of conflict. I love working with families to put a plan in place. It is one of the best gifts you can give your loved ones.

Personally, I have been far happier and more fulfilled since I stepped into a new life as a multi-passionate entrepreneur. In addition to estate planning, I also work with clients as a health coach. My friends joke that I help people live well and die well, but there is some truth to it. I love helping people reach their potential for a happy, healthy, and vibrant life as much as I enjoy helping you plan for incapacity and death. We never know when the time will come to transition between the two.
