Practicing law and developing good lasting relationships with my clients is very important to me.. I was originally in house counsel at various corporations -- Sun MS, HP, Symantec - doing corporate business law.. When I left inhouse practice to care for my Mother full time who had Alzheimer's, I realized that I wanted to educate people on the importance of planning for their golden years and for their family.. Due to the high costs of caring for a loved one with Alzheimer's, I became a long term care insurance specialist.  I then changed my law focus to estate planning and elder law.. In addition to my practice, I welcome the opportunity to educate the public on the importance of planning for their golden years .  I donate time to provide legal advice and education through the "Lawyers in the Library" program with my local bar association.. I now truly enjoy the practice of the law because I can see the results of the help I provide to my clients.

My Story. Growing up my parents worked hard to make sure I had everything I needed to be successful.  My success was more important to theirs.  When I was 28 years old my mom had a stroke.  My parents were divorced so my mom was alone during this ordeal.  I knew nothing about her financial situation.  I did not know what bills to pay, where to pay it from, or even what accounts she had.  During this time she was taking care of my older brother who was bed ridden with psoriatic arthritis.. Although I was 28 years old, I had no clue what to do.  Fortunately upon consulting a lawyer we were able to piece everything together.  She could have lost everything.. My goal is to give people the peace of mind that their family is taken care of upon death and disability.  I help my clients identify what and whom is important to them.  People have worked their whole lives for their family.  We solve the puzzle now so that your loved ones are not struggling to put the pieces together later..

Attorney with over 20 years expereince in family law, including divorce, custody, support and domestic violence issues.  In additiion to family law, I also practice immigration law, specficially focusing on family unity and naturalization.. A little about me:. My family immigrated to the United States in 1978 when I was 8 years old. I still have childhood memories of life outside the United States. Some memories are pleasant, others are not. Growing up in the US under the watchful eye of hard working immigrants taught me to strive for success at every turn. I learned to fight for my beliefs, I learned perseverance and most of all I learned that I can define the direction of my achievements. These lessons helped me graduate toward the top of my class from Loyola School of Law, New Orleans in 1995.. My first position after law school was with a firm in down town Los Angeles, focusing on general civil litigation. In 1997 I moved to Northern California where I married my husband. After a few more years as an employee in the legal field, I decided to take some of my parents' lessons and strike out on my own.. My family background coupled with my experience in law and running a business provides my clients with an attorney who is strong, compassionate and has the resolve and determination to fight for her clients. As an attorney I have learned the law. But as a business owner, I have developed strategies to problem solve, negotiate and help my clients achieve their goals. When taking on a new matter, I work with my client to first determine the most effective course for the case. This includes defining the goals and objectives, but it also requires a careful analysis of my client's personality. Some clients are fighters and need an aggressive knight who battles for the client's beliefs. Other clients prefer a more collaborative approach and need an attorney who finds creative solutions outside the courtroom. Finally, I believe that as a good advocate I need to provide not only a "legal win" for the client, but a "win" that can actually translate to that client's real world.. In sum, I believe an attorney and her client share a bond that reaches a step beyond the law. It's no accident that attorney-client communication is privileged just as communication between doctors and religious leaders. Clients often share their confidences, their concerns and their fears. It's my job to tailor my representation for each client to independently match the needs of that individual. It is with these beliefs, convictions and human understanding, that I offer my services to my clients.
