For more than twenty-five years, Hicks has practiced law at the highest levels of the profession. A graduate of Yale Law School, he spent his career advising corporate executives, business owners, and boards of directors on important decisions affecting the future of their organizations.
Then he became the client.
When Hicks went through his own divorce, he experienced the legal system from the other side of the table. While he found capable lawyers, he was surprised by how often families were left to navigate major life transitions without the guidance, communication, and support they needed.
As a lawyer, Hicks understood the legal issues. As a client, he experienced the uncertainty, frustration, and anxiety that can accompany a major change in life.
That experience led him to a simple realization: families deserve the same level of thoughtful planning, guidance, and personal attention that businesses receive when facing important transitions.
That realization became the foundation for Hicks Family Lawyers.
Today,
the firm helps clients navigate some of the most important transitions a family can face. Sometimes that means guiding a client through divorce or a custody dispute. Sometimes it means helping parents protect their children through estate planning.
Sometimes it means helping a family transfer a business or cherished assets to the next generation. And sometimes it means helping family members solve problems before they become conflicts.
Through each of these moments, the mission remains the same: help families move forward with clarity, confidence, and a plan.
Hicks believes legal representation should be about more than documents, court hearings, and transactions. It should be about helping people protect what matters most, make wise decisions, and build the future they want for themselves and the people they love.
When clients hire
Hicks Family Lawyers, they are not simply hiring a lawyer. They are gaining a trusted advisor, advocate, and guide through life’s most important transitions.
You won’t navigate this alone.
