Welcome to Bayog Law, Your Trusted Partner in Estate Planning

About Bayog Law

Bayog Law was founded on a simple mission: to make estate planning affordable and accessible to everyone — not just the wealthy. We believe every family deserves peace of mind, a clear plan, and guidance from someone who cares.

What We Do Best

At Bayog Law, we focus on what we do best: simple, effective estate planning. That includes:

Wills and Trusts
Powers of Attorney
Health Care Proxies
Living Wills & HIPAA Authorizations
Probate and Guardianship Support

While we’re always learning and expanding, we don’t pretend to do it all — and we don’t need to. We stick to our lane and refer out anything that requires a different level of expertise.

Need Something Else? We’ve Got You Covered.

Estate planning touches many areas — tax planning, real estate, elder law, family matters, and more. We maintain a wide network of trusted attorneys and professionals, and we’re always happy to make a referral.

If your matter is beyond our current focus — such as advanced tax planning for high net worth estates — we’ll connect you with the right expert.

Most People Don’t Need a “Fancy” Estate Plan

There’s a myth that you need a complicated estate plan to protect your family. In reality, most people just need something clear, affordable, and well-drafted. That’s exactly what we deliver.

If you’re in the small group of clients who needs a more complex tax strategy, we’ll be honest with you — and refer you to someone who can help.

Client-First, Tech-Forward

Everything we do is designed to save you time and money — without sacrificing quality. We use:

Secure, integrated client portals
Top-of-the-line legal drafting software
Digital forms and e-signatures
Remote meetings and document reviews
Trusted research tools and legal databases

You’ll always know where your plan stands — and you’ll never be left guessing.

Serving All of Eastern Massachusetts

While our office is located at 118 County Road in Ipswich, we proudly serve clients across:

Essex County
Middlesex County
Bristol County
Norfolk County
Suffolk County

We do most work remotely — but we’ll travel to you for signings or consultations when needed.

Let’s Educate Together

Bayog Law is always looking for opportunities to speak at local events, webinars, and networking groups. If you're looking for a guest speaker on estate planning or legal preparedness — or a collaborative partner — we'd love to hear from you.

FAQS

What is estate planning and why is it important?

Estate planning is the process of organizing and managing your assets and affairs to ensure they are distributed according to your wishes after your death. It includes creating documents such as wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and healthcare directives. Estate planning is important because it provides peace of mind, protects your loved ones, minimizes legal complications, and ensures your wishes are honored.

What is the difference between a will and a trust?

A will is a legal document that outlines how your assets will be distributed after your death and can appoint guardians for minor children. A trust, on the other hand, is a legal entity that holds and manages assets on behalf of your beneficiaries during your lifetime and after your death. Trusts can help avoid probate, provide tax benefits, and offer greater control over how and when your assets are distributed.

When should I update my estate plan?

You should review and update your estate plan regularly, especially after major life events such as marriage, divorce, the birth of a child, the death of a beneficiary, or significant changes in your financial situation. Keeping your estate plan current ensures that it accurately reflects your wishes and provides the necessary protection for your assets and loved ones.
