Elizabeth Estes
Partner / Managing Estate Law Attorney
Elizabeth “Libby” Estes has the experience, knowledge and compassion to help guide you through the process of preparing your estate plan. Libby starts the process by listening to you in order to get an understanding of your unique needs and goals. Then she identifies and presents the options to you along with her recommendations. This collaborative process ensures that your estate plan is tailored to your specific circumstances.
In addition to estate planning, Libby practices probate as well as estate and trust administration. She knows and understands how estate plans work because she implements them. Libby also offers legal services in business law and entity formation for those individuals, couples and families who have or wish to establish business interests. By providing these essential services, she will help you meet your goals today and plan for the future, whatever your unique needs may be.
Libby graduated from Arizona State University College of Law (now Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law) in 1998. Thereafter, she clerked for a judge at the Arizona Court of Appeals and went on to private practice in a mid-sized Phoenix law firm. Prior to opening her own firm, Libby was a partner at a large national law firm, where she represented a wide range of clients, from individuals to large companies, in complex litigation.
Armed with the knowledge and experience gained while working in a large law firm, Libby narrowed her focus and opened her own law firm. She tailored her practice to provide more personalized attention and quality legal services focused on helping individuals and families navigate the complexities of estate planning, probate, trust administration, guardianship/conservatorship, and business law. Recognizing that Cantor Law Group shared the same vision, Libby joined the firm to continue providing high quality legal services with personalized attention, empathy and an unwavering commitment to the best interests of her clients.
Libby spends much of her free time with family and friends. When the weather is nice, you can find her climbing up South Mountain or hiking any one of the many beautiful trails that Arizona offers. She and her husband love food, wine and travel and try to combine the three as often as possible.

Nik and Robin did an amazing job helping a friend of mine through her divorce!! Josephine Jackson2024-10-27Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Most like everyone else I didn’t know who to get to represent me in my divorce. With so many lawyers to choose from how do you know who is right. I just happen to find Cantor Law Group just by searching divorce lawyers and I am so happy I picked them. When I went to my consultation from the time I walked in to the time I left I knew I had made the right decision. From the receptionist to the assistant to meeting and talking with Caleb McKay I felt welcomed and that they are there to help me. Anytime I needed to contact Caleb or his assistant I could and hear back either the same day or the next day. There were times I felt overwhelmed especially in the beginning with all the paperwork but they helped me out tremendous. Caleb and his staff were in constant contact with me and never made me feel lost or left out. They made sure I knew what the next step was and ready for it. I cannot thank them enough for all they have done for me. I highly recommend Cantor Law Group
