If your home is moving toward a foreclosure sale, you have the option to sell it and protect the equity and your credit. If your home has already sold at a Sheriff's sale, you still have rights -- for six months following the sale! I provide 30 minute free phone consultations to discuss your unique situation and assess any potential strategies to support you.. Additionally, if your home sells at foreclosure for more than was owed, whether by a mortgage loan lender or for unpaid property taxes, you have rights to recover the surplus funds. I offer my services to recover these funds that are rightfully yours.

I practice only in the areas of Medicaid Planning, Asset Protection, Planning for Long-Term Care, Estate Planning for people of any age and Probate.  I pride myself of client engagement and communication.  If you have ever had a lawyer before who you could never reach, who never returned phone calls or answered emails, you know how important it is that your lawyer respond to you to maximize your outcome and to give you piece of mind.  When you call my firm, you call my direct line and I pride myself on returning messages and emails the same day I receive them.  Planning for a loved one's Long-Term Care is not only stressful due to healthcare decisions, but also because of the financial costs and the client's lack of knowledge about what help is available.  My primary goal for each client is two-fold: bring together the latest legal stretegies in Long-Term Care planning as well as counseling and communication that will guide your family through one of life's most stressful times.

I love what I do and I enjoy life!  Having chosen to focus my practice on estate planning and probate law, I have the privilege of being instrumental in processes that help individuals resolve life concerns through estate planning and probate assistance.  I believe that proper planning produces peace of mind.  My goal is to give that gift to each client of mine.. Personally, I love my family.  I also enjoy all sports involving the University of Michigan.  Go blue!  I look forward to speaking with you.

I love to help people solve legal problems, and even better, prevent problems. My practice includes real estate, landlord representation, evictions, manufactured housing law, wills and trusts, estate planning and administration, probate, guardianships, business planning, and general civil litigation. I focus on resolving matters without litigation when possible, but when necessary I go to bat in court for my clients. I pride myself on providing excellent customer service to my clients. Unlike the larger firms, my clients work with me directly from the first phone call to the last meeting.

I have been representing people and businesses in court cases and litigation matters for thirty-three years. I understand that it is a great privilege and responsibility to speak on behalf of someone else and I take that responsibility seriously.  My first job is to help you solve your legal problem in the most efficient and effective way possible. When a case requires a court fight, I believe in fighting only the issues worth fighting but fighting them aggressively and fairly. I believe that even an aggressive trial lawyer must still work to solve problems.. Throughout my career I have helped people and businesses in various types of civil litigation. I help clients to resolve problems or present their cases in court in real estate, property and construction cases, divorce, custody and family law disputes, general business contract and sales disputes, employment and non-compete clause arguments and personal injury lawsuits. I encourage facilitation and mediation and alternative dispute resolution whenever those resolution methods make sense.

I believe in a complete approach to advising clients.  There are no cookie-cutter solutions.  You deserve a plan that meets your needs.
