My Practice
I provide services to clients in matters involving:
- Probate: I work closely with executors, administrators, personal representatives, and trustees, helping them take the steps necessary to settle an estate or trust.
- Estate planning: I will help you determine the most effective way to distribute your assets upon your death, avoid or eliminate estate taxes, and plan business succession. I will prepare all the documents necessary to put your estate plan in place.
- Wills and trusts: Even if you don't need complex estate planning, you still need a will, and you may need a trust to handle specific matters for you after your death.
- Guardianship: Whether you are the person seeking a guardianship for a loved one or are seeking counsel for an incapacitated person in a guardianship proceeding, I can help you through this often emotional process.
