At Mana Wealth Trust & Estate Law, we start estate planning by understanding your family, your goals, and what you've worked hard to build. The documents come after that.

Our team takes a personal, collaborative approach to estate planning, working closely with your financial advisors, accountants, and other trusted professionals so your estate plan fits your finances and long-term goals.

Legal guidance and financial planning work better when they are coordinated. That is how we help families protect their assets and pass them on.

Biographies

Our co-founders, attorneys and client service staff, and the part each of them plays in your plan.

Portrait of Brandon Segal

Co-Founder | Attorney

Brandon Segal, Esq.

Brandon Segal brings a broad legal background spanning sophisticated civil litigation, real estate matters, probate-related disputes, appellate work, and courtroom advocacy.

Earlier in his career, Brandon practiced with Alston Hunt Floyd & Ing (one of Hawaiʻi’s prominent law firms, now part of Dentons), where his work included commercial litigation, real estate matters, and complex probate litigation. He also served as a law clerk with the Hawaii Intermediate Court of Appeals. Brandon later developed substantial courtroom and trial experience before entering private practice.

Today, that combination of transactional understanding and litigation experience gives Brandon a valuable perspective when helping families protect their assets and plan for the future. He has seen how property, family relationships, business interests, and estate plans become complicated when planning is incomplete or disputes arise.

Brandon practices through Segal Law – A Hawaiʻi Law Corporation, which does business as Mana Wealth Trust & Estate Law. He is the attorney responsible for the legal services provided to estate planning clients, and he coordinates with planning and financial professionals when a client asks for that assistance.

Portrait of Elsa Agdinaoay

Co-Founder

Elsa Agdinaoay

For Elsa, estate planning means helping families keep what they've worked hard to build and pass it on to their children and grandchildren.

With more than 18 years of experience in financial services and an extensive background in estate planning, Elsa has seen firsthand how the absence of proper planning can affect families.

During her years as a financial advisor at one of Hawaiʻi's largest banks, she recognized a recurring problem: many families had worked hard to build financial security but lacked the guidance and coordination needed to protect it. Accounts were sometimes improperly titled, beneficiary designations were missing or outdated, and estate planning documents didn't always reflect a family's wishes. These seemingly small oversights could lead to unnecessary complications and unintended consequences for loved ones.

Those experiences helped inspire her vision for Mana Wealth Trust & Estate Law: a firm where Maui residents could turn to experienced legal professionals who understand estate planning and work alongside financial advisors and accountants.

As a co-founder, Elsa wants estate planning to be accessible to ordinary local families. She understands that for many Maui families, their greatest assets represent generations of hard work.

Elsa sees generational wealth as the opportunities and security one generation leaves for the next.

Portrait of Bradford R. Ing

Co-Counsel | Estate Planning Attorney

Bradford R. Ing, Esq.

For Bradford Ing, estate planning is part of his family's history on Maui.

Born and raised on Maui and a graduate of Baldwin High School, Bradford is a second-generation attorney who followed in the footsteps of his father, Lawrence N.C. Ing, Esq., founder of The Ing Law Firm. His father spent decades serving Maui families, and built a practice on long relationships with the community. Bradford carries on that practice today.

After completing his undergraduate studies at the University of Washington, Bradford earned his law degree from the University of California, Hastings College of the Law (now UC Law San Francisco) before returning home to Maui to practice law. Over the years, he has built a career grounded in serving the legal needs of individuals and families, with a practical approach to his work.

Bradford's experience and deep understanding of Maui's families and community shape the way he approaches estate and legacy planning. He treats people with respect and keeps clients for decades.

He believes good estate planning begins with listening to what each client cares about, followed by clear, practical advice. His goal is for families to leave knowing their decisions are made and written down.

Portrait of Crystal Loh

Estate Planning Paralegal

Crystal Loh

Crystal Loh brings a unique perspective to estate and legacy planning shaped by her own experience growing up in a multigenerational family business.

Raised in Dallas, Crystal grew up within a family that built and operated one of the region’s largest Asian grocery retail chains. From an early age, she saw firsthand what it takes to build a successful family enterprise, and how much depends on preparing for the handoff from one generation to the next.

That experience gives Crystal a personal understanding of an issue at the heart of legacy planning: building wealth is only part of the work. Keeping it in the family and preparing the next generation to run it matter just as much.

Today, Crystal brings that perspective to her work supporting estate planning clients through client coordination, organization, document preparation, and the detailed process of moving an estate plan from the initial planning stages through completion.

Crystal does not provide legal advice. Legal advice and final legal decisions are provided by the attorney responsible for each client’s matter.

Growing up in a close-knit Maui family, Haylie saw firsthand how good planning shapes a family’s finances, both for people just starting out and for those who will inherit.

Today, Haylie helps guide clients through the estate planning process by coordinating information, communications, scheduling, document preparation, and the many details required to move a plan from the initial conversation through signing and completion.
