Jennifer Welch Murray

Jennifer Welch Murray advises individuals and families on estate and tax planning, trust and estate administration, charitable planning and business succession planning. Her practice covers a wide variety of trusts and estates matters, including drafting wills and trusts, structuring and implementing tax-efficient lifetime gifts, administering decedent’s estates (including the preparation of estate tax returns), advising on trust administration, and succession planning for closely held business owners.

Jennifer closely listens to her clients to understand their objectives in order to develop comprehensive and tax efficient estate plans that also meet their personal non-tax goals. She recognizes that thinking about and planning for the future can feel overwhelming, but her friendly manner, attention to detail, honesty, and depth of knowledge put her clients at ease and helps to build their trust. Whenever possible, she strives to simplify, declutter and streamline existing estate plans.

Prior to joining Pierce Atwood, Jennifer managed her own successful practice in Hingham for seven years. Prior to that she was an associate at Sullivan & Worcester, K&L Gates, and law firms on the South Shore.
