Helping Green Country Families Plan for the Future
Green Country is known for its rolling hills, lakes, and tight-knit communities—and for many families, it’s a place to build a life and a legacy. At Schaffer Herring PLLC, we help clients throughout northeast Oklahoma develop estate plans that reflect their values, protect their assets, and support the next generation.
Our clients come from all over Green Country—including towns like Coweta, Glenpool, Claremore, Inola, Verdigris, Collinsville, Kiefer, Mannford, and Oologah.

Wherever you’re starting from, we help you make informed decisions and move forward with confidence.
Comprehensive Estate Planning Services in Green Country
Revocable Living Trusts
A revocable living trust allows you to retain control of your assets during your lifetime. It also helps your beneficiaries avoid probate and ensures a smooth transfer of property after your death.
Irrevocable Trusts & Asset Protection
For clients focused on protecting assets from creditors or qualifying for long-term care assistance, we offer irrevocable trusts as part of a comprehensive asset protection strategy.
Special Needs Planning
We assist families in establishing special needs trusts to provide long-term financial security for loved ones with disabilities—without jeopardizing their eligibility for government benefits.
Probate & Estate Administration
If you’re managing the estate of a loved one, we guide you through the Oklahoma probate process. We work to reduce delays, resolve legal issues, and help you carry out your responsibilities.
Last Will & Testament
A will is the foundation of many estate plans. It allows you to name beneficiaries, appoint guardians, and provide clear instructions for the distribution of your assets.

For those concerned about long-term care expenses, we help structure plans to preserve assets while maintaining eligibility for Medicaid coverage.
Guardianship for Incapacitated Adults
If a loved one becomes unable to manage their affairs, we assist families in establishing guardianships through the courts in northeast Oklahoma.

For business owners across Green Country, planning for succession is key to preserving what you’ve built.
