Welcome to rb LEGAL, where planning is personal.

Here, you’ll find a team that listens first, solves second, and always leads with care.

How rb LEGAL is different

We’re not your traditional estate planning firm, and that’s intentional. We believe estate planning should be personal, not transactional. We’re redefining what it means to serve clients in this space by putting you first, always. It’s about protecting what matters most, with care and clarity.

Customized Planning

Your life is unique, and your plan should be too.
We tailor every detail to fit your goals, family, and future.

Kids Protection Plan

Ongoing Support

We offer regular check-ins every year for our Care Always Members and every three years for others to make sure your wishes stay aligned with your reality.

Asset Tracking

We help you stay organized and informed. Your assets are accounted for and easy to update.

Rebecca Bell

Founder and Attorney, rb LEGAL

Rebecca is the Founder and Principal Attorney at rb LEGAL. She started the firm because she likes taking care of people and providing them with practical solutions in a welcoming and comfortable environment.

Rebecca brings a wealth of expertise, wisdom, experience, and compassion to the rb LEGAL team. She helps clients with their probate, estate planning, business law, pet trust and equine law issues.

Her hobbies include reading, kitchen dancing, and spoiling her dogs. She finds Fritos very dangerous. 

Rebecca’s Story

You can probably relate to our founder Rebecca’s experience. She hadn’t started law school at the time her grandfather got ready to do his Will. It was a big occasion. He got dressed up in what he called his “funeral suit,” a navy pinstripe that he wore to weddings, funerals, and planned to be buried in. Rebecca, her grandfather, and her mother went to a downtown Minneapolis fancy lawyer’s office. They felt intimidated. They had too much lawyer for too few assets, but didn’t know that. They felt embarrassed, and Rebecca remembers her grandfather apologizing for taking this fancy lawyer’s time for his little farm and bank account. 

Nobody should feel that way. 

Planning for life events isn’t always easy. We want to be the ones who listen, understand, and make you feel wanted and welcome. 

At rb LEGAL, our entire team genuinely appreciates the trust you place in us to help you, your family, and future generations. Thank you for the opportunity to be at your side listening, caring, and helping you every step of the way. We are here for you.
