I love what I do. I help families create and implement estate plans that accomplish important goals.

I also shepherd estates through the probate process. Probate can be timely and efficient, if the attorney is attentive and detail-oriented. If not, the probate process can take far too long, prolonging a family’s financial and emotional pain.

Family fights over inherited wealth are common. If the need arises, I will litigate to protect your rights and property.

SAMPLE LEGAL CASES

When Bankruptcy Is a Smart Financial Move
Most people see bankruptcy as a last resort — something to avoid at all costs. But in reality, bankruptcy isn’t about failure. It’s about strategy and resetting your financial life when debt has spiraled beyond control. In some cases, filing for bankruptcy is not only smart — it's the most financially responsible decision you can make.
Does Getting a Document Notarized Make It "Legal"?
The public's perception of what a notary does and what notarization accomplishes is often incorrect. This is particularly the case when a person brings a document to a notary public to be notarized, thinking that the notarization will in some way "legalize" the document or make it "official." Learn more here.
Unmarried? You Are Not Alone, But You Still Need a Plan
Did you know that in many instances, it is even more important that a single person have a well-coordinated estate plan, than a married couple. This is because the default laws governing estates often work poorly for people without a spouse and may not adequately provide for a significant other or unmarried partner. Having a cohesive and well-drafted estate plan will ensure that you protect and provide for those you truly care about upon your death. Learn more here.
