Estate planning is not just about documents. It is about protecting your loved ones, avoiding conflict, and giving your family peace of mind. At Sowerby & Moustakis Law, we guide clients through the estate planning process with clarity, compassion, and expertise.

Here are the top five reasons clients across Southern New Hampshire choose us for estate planning:

Reason 1: Recognized Experiencein Estate Planning and Elder Law

Founder and Managing Member Peter Moustakis serves as President of the New Hampshire Chapter of the National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys (NAELA) and is active in both the New Hampshire and Massachusetts Bar Associations. These leadership roles reflect his depth of knowledge and his peers’ trust in his expertise.

“Knowledgeable, organized, responsive, articulate, approachable, good-humored, thorough, skilled, these are all the words I’d use to describe Peter.” – Julie T.

Reason 2: We Make Estate Planning Easy

Clients often expect estate planning to be stressful or complicated. They leave our office saying it was much easier than they thought. We break down complex topics into plain English, adapt our explanations to each client’s style, and make the process comfortable, not intimidating.

“We thought setting up a trust was going to be hard, but Peter made the process so smooth and easy. He was responsive, professional, and helpful in explaining the whole process.” – Rebeccah C.

Reason 3: Local Roots and Personal Attention

Our office in Amherst serves families across Milford, Hollis, Nashua, Bedford, and nearby communities. Unlike large Boston firms that advertise in New Hampshire, we are local and provide personalized service. When you call us, you talk to a person who remembers you, not a stranger in a call center.

“Danielle picks up the phone and remembers you from two years ago. It’s not just another transaction.” – Peter Moustakis

Reason 4: Integrated Planning for Families and Businesses

We go beyond drafting wills and trusts. Our process includes family meetings to explain your plan, funding trusts to ensure they work properly, and succession planning for business owners. This integration makes us unique among small firms in New Hampshire.

“Peter explained our goals and in minutes we had a game plan to protect our assets, create a trust, and a will for our protection. Two weeks later we received a beautiful portfolio package to pass to our family.” – Donald G.

Reason 5: Proven Client Satisfaction

Our clients consistently give us five-star reviews, describing us as thorough, organized, approachable, and responsive. They appreciate that we take the time to listen, explain, and make sure their loved ones understand the plan.
