Nido Planning was created for you. Yes, you!

 

Nido, or nest, signifies your unique place in the world

It is who you are, the life you have created, and everything you hold dear. This is what estate planning is all about — at its most beautiful, it supports and honors you, helps your loved ones flourish, and makes a positive impact on your community.

Maybe you have heard of estate planning, but aren’t really sure if it would benefit you. Maybe planning is perennially on your to-do list, but either time or motivation is lacking. Maybe you are ready to plan, but are unsure how to go about it or where to begin. Maybe you have started the process, but became overwhelmed and never finished. Maybe you created some legal documents yourself online, but doubt whether you did it right.

To all of you, welcome

At Nido Planning LLC, we are dedicated to breaking down the barriers you face. We are on a mission to bring attorney-provided estate planning to everyone in or near Denver, Colorado by making it accessible, meaningful, and even fun! Let us take the pressure off.

5 - Leaving Your Mark

Will & Trust Planning

This module is for anyone who has completed Modules 1-4 (or Modules 2-4 if you are not a parent or guardian), and answers the question: What is the best way to pass on the tangible fruits of your time and labor, as well as the gifts that you have received?

We will work with you one-on-one to leave a legacy of love through a will or trust(s), while helping to minimize conflict and waste.

The Nido Manifesto.

 

  • We recognize that life is short, beautiful, and meaningful — even when messy and tragic. It is a miracle that we can all be together at this moment, spinning through space on a ball of rock. We seek to honor that miracle.

  • We know that each person has inherent worth and dignity, which is not reflective of their worldly goods or the body they inhabit. Everyone has a story to tell and an impact to make. We help people do both.

  • We believe that every person has power to shape the future. Estate planning is one mechanism for wielding that power, which should be available to everyone rather than reserved for the privileged few. We extend an invitation to all who have not yet been invited to use these tools.

  • We feel that attorneys should provide legal services in ways that align with the realities of modern life. They should have the courage to innovate and try new ways of doing things to better serve clients. We imagine a world in which professional legal planning is a standard part of life rather than something exceptional.

 

Your future awaits.

We serve the Colorado community from Denver’s RiNo District.
