Leaving a Real Legacy

How We Guide You to Leave a Legacy That’s About Much More Than Just Your Money

After you are gone, your loved ones will miss you deeply. They will long for your words of counsel and concern. Hearing your voice again would be a tremendous gift.

Through our unique legacy process, you can give your loved ones the most precious gift – a lasting expression of your love. What could be more valuable?

At Soto Law Group, we believe estate planning is not just about transferring your financial assets and personal belongings. It’s also about capturing and transferring your valuable intangible gifts: who you are and what’s important to you – your values, insights, stories and experience.


In July of 2011, my grandmother passed away. At her 90th Birthday Celebration, we recorded 2 hours of stories from her childhood up to some of her last days here on earth. My family has her voice to listen to and be comforted by.


So many people that I tell this story to wish they had a recording of a loved one that has passed on. But imagine what it’s like to have a recording of your loved one telling you what they loved about your family, their hopes for you, what life lessons were most important to them, what values they most wanted for your family or children, or even just saying a nickname that they always called you! Something to pass on to your children and grandchildren for generations to come!

So we realized we’d have to build this into our planning process and not make it just another thing you’ll get done someday.

At Soto Law Group, we make it part of our planning for every client to help you capture and pass on more than just your money: your intellectual, spiritual and human assets, who you are and what’s important to you.

For more information about how we help you pass on your most valuable assets – your values, insights, stories and experience – to your loved ones, or about our resources for leaving your family with a true legacy, please contact us.

What Would it Be Worth?

Can you picture someone who’s passed away, someone you love and miss deeply? Can you recall a conversation you had with them? Can you remember the sound of their voice and what they told you? What if you could hear their voice again?

What if they could speak to you “heart to heart” and share their wisdom and advice? What would it be worth to you to hear their words one more time?

What is it worth to you to know that they’ll always know exactly how much you love them? It’s worth a lot to us, and we are honored to be able to provide you and your family with this gift.

“Dede was recommended to me by a fellow entrepreneur. I was very happily surprised with the whole process. I don’t think anyone looks forward to facing the reality of death but Dede made it so easy and even enjoyable.

I appreciated the way she took time with me, really got to know me and was genuinely interested in my well-being. She walked me through the process with ease and patience. Her assistant was very responsive and great to work with as well. My final appointment, we recorded a conversation about my wishes for my children and she explained that we could all listen to it as my children got older. What a great bonus that was. I feel Dede goes above and beyond for her clients. I felt very well taken care of and have already recommended her to family and friends.” Posted by Justine
