Estate planning and administration, including trusts, elder law and special needs law is a special form of the law, because it can help people avoid family conflict rather than struggle after it has occurred. To this end, I will work with you to ensure that your estate plan establishes a framework for family harmony, that it reflects your deepest values, and that it will protect both your assets and the most important people in your life.
