A Saginaw Area Law Firm Built for Real Legal Matters
CF Legal is not a referral shop or a document preparation service. We are a multi-attorney firm with the depth to handle complex probate disputes, criminal defense, estate planning, real estate transactions, and family law matters, all under one roof. For clients in the Saginaw area, that means you are working with attorneys who have tried cases, argued motions, and navigated Michigan's courts for decades, not a solo practitioner who sends you elsewhere when things get complicated.
Legal Services We Provide to Saginaw and Bay County Clients
Whether you are dealing with a family estate, a criminal charge, a property dispute, or a life planning need, we handle the matters that matter most to people in this region.
When a loved one passes, the probate process can be straightforward or deeply contested. We handle both — from routine estate administration to trust disputes, undue influence claims, and probate litigation.
Wills, revocable and irrevocable trusts, special needs trusts, Medicaid planning, guardianship, and asset protection strategies — built around your family's specific situation.
Residential closings, land contracts, landlord representation, real estate litigation, LLC formation, and construction law. We represent property owners and small business owners throughout the Flint metro area.
Divorce, child custody, and child support matters handled with the seriousness they deserve. When your family's future is on the line, you need attorneys who can negotiate and litigate.
Why Saginaw Clients Choose CF Legal

- 30+ years of experience: Craig Fiederlein has practiced law in Michigan for over three decades. Partner Rick Hetherington brings approximately 18–20 years of additional experience, including his background as a former police officer.
- A former partner now sits on the bench: one of our former partners is now a sitting judge in Genesee County — a direct signal of the firm's standing in the regional legal community.

- Direct phone access and 24-hour return call commitment: when you call, a person answers. If we miss you, we return calls within 24 hours.
