Where to start

Different seasons, same counsel.

Business owners

You run the business. We'll handle the legal side.

From the first filing to the final handoff: forming the entity, papering the agreements that hold it together, and standing up when a customer, partner, or buyer makes things complicated.

  • Entity formation
  • Operating agreements
  • Contracts & review
  • Buying a business
  • Selling a business
  • Partnership disputes
  • Employment issues
  • Privacy & AI compliance

Families & individuals

Put your wishes in writing while the decisions are still yours.

Estate plans, powers of attorney, and the court matters families run into when someone can no longer manage on their own. Most of this work carries a flat fee, quoted before we begin.

  • Wills & trusts
  • Powers of attorney
  • Health care directives
  • Probate
  • Guardianships
  • Conservatorships
  • Missionary POAs
  • Contractor disputes

You've outgrown the online forms. You don't need a forty-lawyer firm.

Most people reach a point where the templates stop covering the situation, but the large firm feels like overkill: expensive, slow, and staffed by someone you will never actually speak to.

That is the gap this firm was built to fill. We have done this work from the inside, as corporate counsel at a publicly traded company, and from the outside, at Utah's largest law firm. The same judgment comes to owners and families directly here: no layers, no billable-hour theater, and a flat fee wherever the work allows one.

For most of our clients the business and the family are the same conversation anyway. We handle both, so you are not paying three firms to answer one question.

How working together goes

No mystery, no surprise invoices. We use a mix of flat fees and hourly billing, and you will know which applies before any work begins.

First

A free intro call

Tell us what is going on. You will get an honest answer about whether you need an attorney at all, and whether this is the right firm for it.

Then

A scope and a price

You get the plan and the fee — flat where it fits, hourly where it does not — so you decide before anything starts.

Then

We get it done

Documents drafted, deals closed, matters handled. You work directly with the attorney on your matter, start to finish.

About Robert Snyder

Robert spent the first part of his career where the stakes were highest: advising the C-suite of a public company and drafting for Utah's largest firm. He has reviewed contracts, structured entities, negotiated with billion-dollar counterparties, and built privacy and compliance programs spanning more than fifteen jurisdictions.

He founded SunCrest Law to bring that work to the clients who need it most and are least likely to get it: the founder forming a first LLC, the family buying or selling a business, the parent who needs an estate plan or a guardianship handled with care.

Companies that need a legal function, not a law firm

For mid-market and public companies, the firm serves as ongoing outside general counsel on a monthly engagement, and runs fixed-price programs in AI governance, data privacy, incident response, international operations, anti-corruption, and records governance — on their own, inside that engagement, or as interim coverage while you hire.

Tell me what you're building — or protecting.

The first conversation is free and there is no obligation. Bring the messy version; sorting out the shape of the problem is our job.
