Yuki Ku

Chief Attorney

Roots and Wings Legal

Welcome to Roots and Wings Legal, where we are committed to helping you secure your family's future and ensure a smooth transition for your business. My name is Yuki Ku, and I am an estate planning attorney based in Walnut Creek, nested in the vibrant San Francisco Bay Area. With over a decade of legal expertise, I am here to guide you through the complexities of estate planning, so you can protect your loved ones and your legacy.

My journey in the legal field began by serving big corporations, such as Samsung and Tencent, while working at prestigious international law firms like K&L Gates (Best Lawyers Best Law Firms 2023) and Covington (Vault Top Ranked). Later, I took on the role of Head of Legal and General Counsel for various technology companies in Silicon Valley, including Together Labs, a company recognized as one of Time's 100 Most Influential Companies in 2022.

However, it was a personal tragedy that reshaped my perspective on the law. When my father passed away without an estate plan, my family endured not only the pain of loss but also the daunting legal challenges and family conflicts that followed. This experience inspired me to redirect my legal practice toward ensuring that no other family goes through what mine did.

My passion now lies in helping families prepare for the unexpected twists of life, whether it's the untimely death or the incapacity of a loved one. If my dad had passed away 30 years earlier, my life would have been completely different. I would have never become a lawyer, and much more likely, I would have become a high school dropout to get a job and help support my family. I understand the profound impact the death of a parent can have on your family's future, and I am dedicated to guiding you to make sure your children and loved ones have the best chance at success in life, no matter what.

As your dedicated estate planning attorney, I specialize in creating comprehensive estate plans tailored to your unique circumstances and aspirations. Think of me as your family's personal general counsel, someone who will stand by your side, ensuring that you are ready for whatever the future may hold.

Leveraging my extensive experience working with large corporations and as a general counsel, I take a holistic approach to crafting a legacy plan that not only safeguards your family but also adapts and evolves as your family, career, business, and wealth grow.
