Estate Planning Lawyer, Connecticut
Built Around the People You’d Do Anything For
The Estate Planning Lawyer Connecticut Families Trust.
A well-designed estate plan eases the burden on your loved ones and protects everything you’ve worked so hard to build.
At Inner Circle Legal Planning, we partner with our clients to bring the power of the law into the warm confines of their homes.
Revocable Trusts
A plan that keeps you in control, and protects your inner circle.
A Revocable Living Trust is designed to make things easier for the people you love later – without changing how you live or manage your assets today.
Irrevocable Trusts
A plan for protecting what you’ve built – even if life takes a turn.
Think of the Irrevocable Trust as a protective bucket. We create the bucket and decide what belongs inside—like your home—to shield your assets from Medicaid and the high costs of long-term care.
Wills
Your Will is your voice. Without one, the State fills in the blanks.
A Will allows you to take control of certain outcomes – naming who’s in charge and who receives what – rather than relying on default laws that don’t know your family or your priorities.
Probate
Guidance for your family when there’s already enough to carry.
Probate and trust administration come into play after a loss, when your loved ones are already dealing with enough. We help guide them through the legal process, paperwork, and next steps so they feel supported, informed, and not left to figure it out alone.
Business Succession Planning
A plan for protecting your business and the people who depend on it.
Business Succession Planning helps make sure your business can keep going if life takes an unexpected turn or when it’s time for you to step away. It creates a clearer path for transition, protects the value you’ve built, and helps prevent unnecessary disruption for partners, employees, and family.
Why Estate Clients Work With Us
I have worked with Bryan Etter for the past four years on probate and estate planning matters, and I highly recommend him. He takes the time to thoroughly explain my options, making sure I feel confident and informed in every decision.
I have had the pleasure of working with Bryan for the past few months. He very quickly put an Estate Plan in place for my mother when we were in crisis. When she passed, he came to my home immediately, explained what comes next, and put my mind at ease.
Recently, I contacted Bryan Etter to consider a living trust. He was very thorough in explaining options. I felt very comfortable with his presentation. We went on to complete a trust. I'd definitely recommend him for any Estate Planning.

Estate Planning is never easy, but thankfully, I came across Bryan Etter online in early Fall, who came highly recommended by his many positive reviews. Bryan immediately put my mother and I at ease during our initial consultation.
I feel compelled to share the wonderful experience I had working with Bryan Etter in my Estate Planning. I had thought that I only needed a will, but Bryan explained several other aspects of this process, such as needing a Health Care Proxy, etc.
I've had the fortunate opportunity to work with Bryan and his team on multiple occasions, and each time has been better than the last. He's extremely patient, detail-oriented and always very responsive, regardless of how simple my questions may be.
Working with Bryan was a very good experience for me. I wanted to be sure all of my affairs were in order, to make life easier for my children when the inevitable occurs. Bryan was very professional and clear about every aspect of making a trust.
Just recently my wife and I were looking for a law firm that handles Estate Planning and the process we would need to complete this task. We chose Bryan's team and couldn't be more satisfied with the knowledge and professionalism his team provided.
