I enjoy Estate Planning because it is an area of law in which I can help clients solve problems before they occur, instead of helping them pick up the pieces in an already frustrating situation. The nature of estate planning also makes it possible for me to really get to know my clients and form a relationship of trust. Taking the time to learn about my clients' values, families, and circumstances helps me design an estate plan that will give them a sense of peace. I also do probates, because I love to help people at critical junctures in their lives, such as following the death of a loved one.
