Jackie Bedard - Personal Family Lawyer

 

Jackie Bedard

Attorney & Counselor at Law
Member of National Network of Estate Planning Attorneys

Jackie Bedard's estate planning practice is focused on guiding clients through the complicated, often confusing, maze of balancing family protection, wealth preservation, and cherished family values in the planning process.

Jackie determined early on that traditional estate planning, which typically only focuses on financial wealth, is far too limited and short-sighted. She believes estate planning should not just be about passing on and preserving financial wealth, but also should include preserving intellectual, spiritual, and human wealth—who you are and what’s important to you.

Jackie is a member of the National Network of Estate Planning Attorneys, the National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys, and the Medicaid Planning Network. Locally, Jackie is member of the Women Business Owners Network of Cary, Pay It Forward BNI, the North Carolina Bar Association, and the Wake County Bar Association.

Jackie earned her Bachelor's of Science degree in Economics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and graduated law school magna cum laude in the top 7% of her class at the University of Richmond School of Law.

Jackie resides in Cary with her husband, Dan, and their two dogs, Kylie and Nelly. She is actively involved in the community, a women’s investment club, and civic and networking groups. Jackie also enjoys CrossFit, reading, hiking, cycling, music, and more.
