I am an attorney and C.P.A. with over 20 years of business experience. My background in accounting provides me with a unique perspective, allowing me to fully analyze the financial as well as the legal implications of a transaction. As such, my practice focuses on individuals and businesses under audit or executing transactions with intricate tax implications. In my childhood, I watched my dad as a small business owner work through every penny taxed or saved. I saw the effects of insufficient and even bad advice. And I saw how every dollar earned or taken away affects a business, and even more importantly, family. It's not just dollars, it's time and the opportunity cost that could otherwise provide more for loved ones. As such, my mission is to help individuals and businesses tackle problems and seize opportunities by providing informative and timely legal guidance. I am dedicated to my clients, focusing on communication and trust within the attorney-client relationship, maximizing the value I can provide.

My journey in law was inspired by personal experiences and a commitment to advocating for individuals and families. Growing up in a Spanish-speaking immigrant household, I witnessed the need for ethical attorneys who could provide guidance through the challenging immigration process. This drove me to initiate my professional career in immigration law and for six years I served as a resource for those seeking a better future in a new land. My dedication to serve only deepened when personal circumstances led me to understand the importance of estate planning. Witnessing firsthand the emotional and legal difficulties my family faced during such times was a catalyst for my pursuit of law, drawing parallels to the notion that assembling furniture becomes significantly smoother when armed with a clear plan. These experiences highlighted the critical need for proactive planning in navigating life's most sensitive and intricate moments. Just as constructing furniture necessitates a thoughtful blueprint, I recognized that charting a legal path requires comprehensive understanding, meticulous attention to detail, and a well-crafted strategy. This realization ignited my passion for guiding individuals through these intricate processes, ensuring their interests are safeguarded and their goals achieved. Through my journey, I've come to appreciate the value of compassionate and effective legal support in empowering individuals to make informed decisions. I understand that the challenges faced by individuals and families can be emotionally taxing, and my commitment lies in offering guidance that not only simplifies the complex legal landscape but also provides peace of mind during times of uncertainty.
