Sivia Law Edwardsville

Sivia Law Edwardsville is a lawyer in Edwardsville, Illinois. The firm handles estate planning, elder law, special needs planning, real estate, personal injury, business law, and online legal forms, serving clients throughout Illinois and Missouri. Its attorneys include Todd W. Sivia, Paul A. Marks, Amy L. Bailey, Brandon Niepoetter, Saundra McDowell, and Samuel C. Ranzetta, with Jack H. Humes Jr. of counsel and John Hundley, Leonard Berg, and Larry Waldman retired. The firm holds a rating of 5.00 from the customers who have reviewed it.

Sivia Law traces its start to 2006, when Todd Sivia set out to build a practice offering more than expert legal counsel. The firm describes itself as going beyond the scope of a traditional law firm by partnering with clients to understand their plans for the future, and it credits that approach with clients who have stayed for decades and across generations. Its work covers wills, powers of attorney, healthcare directives, gun trusts, probate, guardianship, VA pension and Medicaid planning, business formation, succession planning, landlord-tenant matters, title services, deeds, evictions, and liens. The firm also created its own online forms because, in its view, most online services do not ask the right questions or produce a document that effectively meets a client's needs.

The office sits on South Main Street, about a tenth of a mile from East Vandalia Street and the same distance from both the Cleaon Etzkorn Bandstand and the Edwardsville Public Library. The Madison County Centennial Monument and the Simon Kellerman Jr. monument are each about a tenth to two tenths of a mile away.

A 5.00 rating reflects the experience of clients who have reviewed the firm, and one reviewer described a contentious estate closing resolved without going to court through Todd Sivia's advice and negotiating approach. For families and businesses in Edwardsville navigating estate, elder law, and business matters, that record of long-standing client relationships is the firm's clearest credential.
