AUSTIN (KXAN) — A south Austin attorney, stuck at home during the COVID-19 pandemic, started a new venture to help people execute wills from the comfort and safety of their cars.
Joel Pace, known to KXAN viewers as the guy who transforms his house into Diagon Alley from Harry Potter on Halloween, started his Curbside Attorney service to help people plan for their future during this uncertain time.
“There’s a precipitating cause for why you start taking care of some of these things,” he said. “Whether it’s birth of a child, you get married, someone dies or there’s a pandemic.”
Pace prepares a client’s paperwork in advance, then the client and a witness pull up in their cars outside his Circle C home. Outfitted with gloves, a mask, a face shield and a smock, he brings the papers to the car window so the client never gets out of the car.
“We’ve tried to make the process friendly, approachable, not time-consuming, and safe,” he said.
