About McCullough Law

We are…

…the golden standard for private wealth and estate planning. We are experts at crafting custom-tailored solutions designed to address the unique complexities of assets and personal family dynamics. We provide exceptional care. Attention to every detail of our clients’ needs is our highest priority. We strive to protect the value of each client’s estate and ensure that legacies live on for generations.

We are not for everyone, but what we do matters to everyone. Those who choose us choose to be a part of something bigger than themselves. The people who will thrive here are people who want to serve others at the highest level. They want more out of a job than simply clocking in and clocking out. They want to be a part of a cause that builds up the people around them, including clients, team members, and themselves. We demand the best because the team, the law, and the client demand—and deserve—the best. And, if we do it right, then we will build something that outlasts all of us.
