Hi, I’m Bryn.

Founder, Juniper Law — Estate Planning Attorney for Northern Virginia & D.C.

I left a successful career working with corporations because I wanted to do work that actually matters to the people I serve. That decision led me here — and I haven’t looked back.

Why I Started Juniper Law

I began my legal career at a federal safety agency, then moved into private practice at a well-established Washington, D.C. law firm, where I helped companies build and defend their safety programs. The work was important, but something was missing.

I kept coming back to the pro bono cases. The real people. The humans trying to navigate complicated situations with no one in their corner. That’s where I felt most useful — and most myself.

I founded Juniper Law so I could do that work every day. Not for corporations, but for families. Not in boardrooms, but at kitchen tables. Estate planning turned out to be exactly the intersection I was looking for: deeply personal, genuinely consequential, and something almost everyone needs but too few have done well.

I am so glad I made the switch.

How I Work With Clients

My approach is built around one belief: you can’t make good decisions about your estate plan if no one has taken the time to educate you about your options.

So before we talk about documents, we talk about your life — your family, your assets, your concerns, and what matters most to you. I guide you through every decision with plain language and real patience. By the time we’re done, you won’t just have a completed plan. You’ll understand it. You’ll be able to explain it to your loved ones. And you’ll feel genuinely good about the choices you made.

Most of my clients tell me afterward that they wish they’d done this years earlier. A few have said it felt less like a legal appointment and more like a conversation with a trusted friend who happens to know estate law. That’s exactly what I’m going for.

A Little About Me

I’m a proud Northern Virginia native — born and raised here, and still here. I had the privilege of being in Arlington Public Schools’ very first Spanish-English immersion class, and Spanish has been part of my life ever since. These days I’m still very proficient, and I use every excuse I can find to travel to Latin America, where I am on a serious mission to taste as many salsas and hot sauces as possible.

I live in Fairfax with my furry family, whose care is — naturally — fully covered under my own estate plan. I also make plenty of time for my human friends and family, who remain only slightly more expensive to maintain.

I earned my bachelor’s degree from Brown University and my law degree from the University of Virginia. I’m licensed to practice in Virginia, Washington, D.C., and — somewhat unexpectedly — Massachusetts.
