A Little About Me

Born and raised on a family farm in Hopkinsville, Kentucky, my journey to the law is deeply connected with my roots. Growing up, I never really worked a traditional job like many of my friends did. Rather I grew up working on our family farm, where my parents still live and work today. Two of the most important qualities passed from one generation to the next in many working families are determination and integrity. Pursuing a career centered around estate planning will allow me to help these same families not only pass down strong character traits, but to also preserve a lasting legacy for future generations. 

Although dedication to my legal work is crucial, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends whenever possible. To date, I have traveled across Europe, walked along the beaches of Hawaii, and hiked several miles in Glacier National Park with my friends and family. As a part of an active family, I enjoy both water and snow skiing, and spend quality time doing both each year.  

While I have enjoyed spending time with different people, my favorite person to make memories with is my wife, Maci. We met at WKU where we fell in love before moving to Lexington where I attended law school. Some of our favorite hobbies include cheering on the Kentucky Wildcats, cooking dinner together and spending time with our Australian Shepherd, Harper. 

Journey to the Law

I began my education at Western Kentucky University, graduating in 2020 with a Bachelor’s of Science in Economics and minored in Finance. I joined Sigma Chi Fraternity and was selected as a Spirit Master, which served as an official ambassador for the Office of The University President. During my time at WKU, I also worked for United Southern Bank over the summer.  

After graduating from WKU, I attended the University of Kentucky for law school. I was a member of the Federalist Society, and during my summers, I interned with Crow Estate Planning and Probate as well as Bluegrass Land Title in Lexington. I believe these previous experiences allowed me to immerse myself into the world of legacy and succession planning.

Upon graduating in 2024, I was happy to accept a full-time position with my previous internship here at Crow, and will serve the greater Hopkinsville area to assist clients with their estate planning and probate matters. I look forward to meeting you and would love to craft a plan that fits your unique situation!

    Professional above all expectations. Every question asked answered to understanding. Took time to tailor my request to the exact detail. Documents were explained to the details there in before signing. Super friendly and not showing sign of disconcerting attitude. I respect this firm and they have my “complete” trust.

    Where do I begin? I truly can’t say enough nice things about Crow Estate Planning & Probate and Alexandra Hulme, without her and everyone around her, I can truly say I don’t know where I would be today. Like many after losing my mother, I was lost, in a dark place and things weren’t happening how my mother had planned in her trust and will. Before waiting too long, I retained Alexandra’s services and she took me through the process step-by-step. Something that I never thought I could afford or I’d have to do. She knew I wasn’t asking her to do anything more than complete my mother’s last wishes. She did just that. They did it because they’re passionate about what they do. Communication was A+. She never left me hanging. I know family means a lot to her/them. I am indebted to her and these people forever. If you need help, call her today. I promise you won’t be disappointed. Thank you Alexandra from the bottom of my heart.

    I was referred to John by a fellow real estate investor when I needed guidance on structuring a couple of LLCs. From the start, he made the process incredibly smooth and straightforward. John was consistently responsive, thorough in his explanations, and showed a genuine commitment to getting everything completed on time—even working late to accommodate my schedule while I was operating from Hawaii, several time zones away. His mix of professionalism, attention to detail, and approachable demeanor made the entire experience seamless. I’m grateful to have him as a resource and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and knowledgeable attorney.

    This firm has done several things for me and real estate clients. Most recently setting up a TIST (Tennessee Investment Services Trust). And redoing my Will, Medical Power of Attorney, and Healthcare Directive. Appreciated their understanding of all of the intricacies of each document. Their timely communication and prompt service.

    I cannot recommend Thomas Steelman highly enough! From the very start, he made the entire process of setting up our estate trust absolutely painless. His expertise and clear explanations turned what I expected to be a daunting task into a smooth and stress-free experience.

    Not only did he handle every aspect of our estate trust with great attention to detail, but he (and law firm colleagues) also took care of transferring over our home deeds so we didn’t have to deal with the hassle of going to the county office ourselves. That alone saved us so much time and stress!

    I honestly thought the process was going to cost a small fortune, but I was pleasantly surprised by how reasonable the pricing was. Most importantly, though, Thomas gave us peace of mind knowing that our hard-earned assets are protected and will go exactly where we want them—without placing unnecessary burdens on our loved ones.

    If you’re looking for a knowledgeable and professional estate trust attorney, Thomas and team are the ones to trust. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
