Montpelier, Vermont · Established 2012
Central Vermont’s counsel, three generations on.
A Brock has practiced law on the streets of Montpelier since the 1970s. Today the firm helps Vermont families plan their estates and helps the state’s credit unions, towns, and businesses handle the work that keeps them running.
The firm
Plain answers to questions that rarely feel simple.
Most people who call us are working through something that matters. A will that needs to reflect a second marriage. An estate to settle after a parent dies. A business to set up correctly, or a credit union board with a regulatory question that cannot wait.
Thomas Brock’s approach is the one his clients tend to mention first: he explains complicated legal issues in language you can actually follow, then helps you decide what to do. No jargon for its own sake, and no pressure.

Planning ahead, and settling what’s left behind.
Estate planning and probate are personal work. We sit down with you, take the time these decisions deserve, and put documents in place that say what you mean. When a loved one has died, we help the people named to handle it.
