Since 2003, my practice has focused on helping families and businesses achieve positive results in difficult situations.  I have extensive experience handling cases in district, probate and circuit court, and I have secured judgments in my clients' favor at each level.  I provide individuals, families and businesses with well designed estate and business sucession plans to avoid conflict along with zealous representation when conflict does arise.. While I do handle family, criminal and adoption cases for clients, the bulk of my practice centers around estate and elder care planning and guiding clients through the probate process.  Over the years my clients, their families, friends and businesses have routinely continued to use my services at different stages of their lives which led me in 2015 to adopt the slogan for my office that states, "We are your family's attorney.".
