Suzanne Simpson founded Simpson Law, PA in 2003 with a goal to make high-quality estate planning compassionate and accessible for families across Maryland, D.C., and Virginia. She truly loves getting to know her clients and hearing the stories that shape their legacies. Whether she is helping a professional reduce estate tax liability or guiding a family through the complexities of probate and trust administration, Suzanne brings a wealth of knowledge to the table. Her dedication hasn’t gone unnoticed, as she is consistently recognized by Super Lawyers and AVVO as a top-tier attorney in her field. Beyond her legal practice, Suzanne is a fixture in the community, having served as president of the Howard County Women's Bar Association and volunteering her time to help seniors with living wills. When she isn’t in the office or attending a local fundraiser, you’ll likely find her embracing her adventurous side. She’s an avid hiker, skier, and paddleboarder who also finds peace at home with her husband, children, two dogs, and her 24 koi. For Suzanne, estate planning isn't just about documents, it’s about protecting the people and stories that matter most.

Reviews for Suzanne
Have you consulted or hired this lawyer?
Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.Ms. Simpson immediately made me feel as though my issues were important when she began our conversation by saying "Tell me about yourself". My previous interactions w/ lawyers has been a stern face with eyes only on the documents at hand. She is professional and compassionate, as well as being very thorough in discussing the topics at hand. Highly recommended. I am grateful.
Ms. Simpson's professionalism, dedication, work ethic, and intimate knowledge of estate law made the initial trust development process and subsequent revisions simple, informative, and comfortable for me. I recommend doing estate planning business with her practice.
Suzanne's knowledge about estate planning made this process far easier than I expected. She and her assistant always responded in a timely manner and were flexible with their time. I feel more prepared for, and comfortable with, both my present and future after having put this planning off for so long.
