Personal Introduction
My journey to becoming an estate planning attorney was inspired by personal experiences. Having faced the loss of four family members within a short span of time, I witnessed firsthand the challenges and complexities that arise without proper estate planning. These experiences underscored the critical importance of having a well-crafted plan in place to protect families and businesses from unnecessary conflict and tax burdens. Prior to estate planning, I have had extensive knowledge in real property law, as I have been an active investor for 31 years and have owned retail, commercial and residential rental properties.
