Hilary Fisher

Hilary Fisher is the Director of Settlements at Legacy Design Strategies, an estate and business planning law firm serving Omaha and other communities. Her practice areas include Estate Planning, Business Planning, Trust Administration, and Probate. She works with clients and their advisors on planning and settlement issues, including legacy goals, wealth preservation, tax considerations, trust management, and the administration of estates after a death.

Fisher earned her J.D. from Arizona Summit Law School in 2015. She also received B.A. degrees in Political Science and Spanish from Nebraska Wesleyan University. She is admitted in Nebraska and Iowa. Her education supports work that combines legal drafting, client counseling, fiduciary administration, and coordination with financial or professional advisors, particularly when families need to translate long-term goals into estate-planning documents or complete the legal steps required during probate and trust administration.

As Director of Settlements, Fisher focuses on the details that arise when trusts and estates must be managed and distributed according to governing documents and applicable law. She also collaborates with clients on customized estate plans and business-planning decisions. Her work can involve identifying planning objectives, considering tax and asset-protection issues, coordinating beneficiary needs, and guiding clients through procedural requirements in probate or trust administration while maintaining clear communication during a difficult transition.

Hilary Fisher helps individuals and families connect planning decisions with the practical administration that eventually follows. She emphasizes careful review, personalized guidance, and solutions that reflect each client’s goals rather than a one-size-fits-all plan. Her combined focus on estate planning, business planning, probate, and trust administration allows her to support clients both before a transition occurs and when documents must later be implemented, interpreted, or administered.
