By Melissa N. Paddy, Esq. & Kaitlyn P. Tauber, Esq., Co-Founders of Liberty Legacy Law Group

As new members of the Carroll County Chamber of Commerce, we’re excited to introduce ourselves and our firm, Liberty Legacy Law Group.

We’re Melissa Paddy and Kaitlyn Tauber, best friends since childhood and now partners in a law firm built on clarity, preparation, and trust. While our office is in Ellicott City, we proudly serve clients throughout Maryland, including many right here in Carroll County – families, professionals, business owners, and retirees who value straightforward guidance and personal connection when it comes to planning for the future.

Who We Are

Our journey began long before law school – growing up side by side, encouraging each other through every chapter of life. That bond of trust is what inspired us to build a law firm that feels different. Our clients don’t get a corporate wall – they get a team that truly listens, shows up prepared, and puts relationships first.

We’ve combined our skills across estate planning, elder law, real estate, business law, and probate to create a modern, approachable law firm that takes the stress and confusion out of legal planning.

What We Do

At Liberty Legacy, we help Marylanders:

• Create wills and trusts that reflect their goals
• Navigate the probate process after losing a loved one
• Plan for long-term care and protect their assets
• Set up legal protections for their businesses and families
• Ensure a smooth transfer of their firearms to their loved ones
• Understand their options with no legal jargon and no judgment

Whether you’re just getting started or have a complex situation, we meet you where you are – and make the process feel manageable and empowering.

Why Carroll County

Carroll County reminds us of everything we love about Maryland: tight-knit communities, a strong sense of connection, and people who take pride in doing things the right way. We’re honored to now be a part of this vibrant business community, and we’re looking forward to building local relationships that last.

We offer complimentary in-person and virtual consultations, and we’re happy to work with clients from Westminster to Woodbine, Eldersburg to Taneytown, and everywhere in between.

Let’s Connect
If you’re looking for down-to-earth, high-quality legal planning with a personal touch, we’d love to talk. Whether you need to get your affairs in order, revisit an old plan, or take the first step toward protecting your family or business, we’re here to help.

If you're a professional interested in collaboration – or know someone who would benefit from a thoughtful approach to estate or business planning – let’s connect! We’re honored to support our community with clarity, confidence, and compassion.
