I have been practicing law in Connecticut since 1989.  I enjoy working with individuals, couples and families to solve their problems and give them peace of mind.. In both the fields of Estate Planning and Elder Law, it takes a certain amount of both legal amd life experiences to recognize unique issues and create and implement creative and effective solutions.  No two client's situations are exactly the same. It is important that I listen to your concerns, your unique set of facts and circumstances and come up with a solution with which you are comfortable.  We do not do "cookie cutter" estate plans at Ericson, Scalise & Mangan.  We tailor each estate plan to your needs and desires.  In Elder Law and Medicaid\Title XIX planning we must put together a plan to care for the senior family member as well as protect as many assets as possible for the family.
