What to expect from Kerri Koen
About Kerri Koen
Hi. I’m Kerri Koen. As a Personal Family Lawyer, I’m here to help families in Greater Boston navigate the maze of legal and financial decisions that make up estate planning in Massachusetts.
I focus my practice on supporting families with minor children and on establishing solid legal foundations and succession planning for women-owned businesses. As a stepmom and wife of a firefighter, I’m also here to help blended families and first-responder families navigate the complex circumstances that they often face. Before I was in private practice, I served in both counsel and business strategy roles in financial services at a highly regarded Boston-based private equity firm and an esteemed global financial institution.
Whether you are single, married, or divorced, my goal is always to help you design a plan that achieves your goals for your loved ones today and for years to come.
I graduated from Stetson University College of Law in 2009 and received several recognitions of excellence in advocacy. I truly enjoy educating my community on topics of guardianship, asset protection, and business succession planning. I am an active member of Boston Business Women and the Massachusetts Bar Association.
Most importantly, I am the proud mother of Henry and Brynn, stepmother of Nicholas and Emma, and wife of Todd.
Testimonials
“My husband and I worked with Kerri…on our estate planning. It was a task that we’ve wanted to have in place for a long time however, years went by and we never did it. I crossed paths with Kerri and she made me feel like we could accomplish this task with ease. It felt less overwhelming than before. Kerri walked us through each step of the process with great care. She’s professional, empathetic, has a keen eye for detail and very organized. She covered every base, considering situations I would have never planned for. Her systems were streamline, efficient and easy to use. We now have our estate plan and kids protection plan in place. It feels amazing to be this organized and know that our assets will remain assets to our children opposed to being a burden for them. Knowing that our wishes for our children are clear and set in a professional manner is a weight lifted. I couldn’t thank Kerri enough for her professionalism and gentle care in helping us manage the most important pieces of our life.”
“Kerri is top notch! She is very thorough and takes a caring and compassionate approach to her work. I will recommend all my clients to her without hesitation. Highly recommended.”
The Personal Family Lawyer Promise
What makes PFL lawyers different?
How you hire us.
We begin with a comprehensive inventory of everything you own, and everyone you love, and consider it all in a working meeting, called a Family Wealth Planning Session, to guide you to clarify your financial life and legacy goals before we draft a single document.
How we plan.
We work with you throughout every life stage to map out the most likely scenarios for you and the people you love, planning for each as your life, the law, and your assets change over time.
What we protect.
Our Life & Legacy Planning process ensures everything that matters most -- from your financial assets to your values, insights, stories and experience -- are captured and documented during your life and cared for over the generations to come.
What you see.
Transparency in our process, and our fees … all of which are flat fees, agreed to in advance, based on your choices and with no surprises, ensuring we stay on the same side of the table - supporting you to make a lifetime of great decisions - every step of the way.
How we deliver.
Our systems help you get clear and organized, overcoming the exact issues that keep most estate plans from actually working when they are needed most. We help you leave your family with a gift of love, and not a mess.
How our plans work.
One-and-done estate plans focused only on money are a recipe for a big mess. We help you throughout every stage of life and be there for the people you love, when you can’t be.
