Our loved ones are often the reason we work so hard.  My job is to help you make sure your loved ones are properly cared for and to preserve your resources for their benefit.. Becoming a new father really brought this into perspective for me.  I took plenty of time to do some “liquid living:" some time in Colorado, a trip around the world, learning another language.  As a result, I feel I can bring a unique perspective to the estate planning process.. My purpose is to help clients understand how to handle unexpected events in their lives. For example, if you can no longer take care of yourself or there has been a death in the family:. ·       How is the mortgage going to be paid?. ·       Who can get money out of my accounts to pay for food?. ·       Who is going to take care of my kids and how is that going to be determined?. ·       Will my children have to move?. A lot of us are concerned about something happening to us that will be a burden on the rest of our family.  We also worry about causing a significant impact on their ability to live their lives.  A lot of planning goes into dealing with incapacity because that can often be more trying than a death in the family.. Estate planning is important to me because it is the process used to manage those issues.  It helps people know those issues are taken care of and allows them to focus on things that are more fulfilling in their personal and professional lives.. I work with financial planners, accountants, insurance companies and other professionals to figure out the best way to take care of your family based on your values.. I enjoy providing solutions that help people have the peace of mind that their family will be taken care of if they cannot do it themselves.  I also take pride in using the time to find the right fit based on my clients’ values; ensure they understand the available options and are actively engaged in the process.  I focus on my clients’ personalities, goals, and values to provide a tailored estate planning solution.  That is why I went to law school – to learn how I can help people.. If an estate planning consultation will help you feel better about how your loved ones will be taken care of after something happens, please set up a consultation and fill out and return our Estate Planning Deficiencies Checklist.

The greatest compliment I hear repeatedly from clients is that I made the estate planning process less difficult than they imagined, that I explained complex concepts so they made sense, and that the documents I prepared for them were clear and understandable.

Growing up my mom was a teacher and dad delivered bread for a living. I started working at 14 as a dishwasher at the Bar-B-Q Restaurant in Milford. While the owners were very gruff people their son Howard managed the kitchen.   He taught me that a manager leads by example; that if you worked hard and respected your team, they would give you their very best.  I soon learned to cook and moved on to Scribner’s Restaurant where the owner taught me an incredible lesson:  “Sure we can do it!” That was Scribner's motto.  At 9:00 on a Tuesday night in January when we hadn’t served a dinner in an hour and a couple called to say they’d be there in 15 minutes to eat, he say “Sure we can do it, come on down.” He’d keep three people on staff just to serve dinner to two customers.  He loved to make customers happy.. My mother went to law school later in life, and when I was admitted to the Connecticut Bar I joined her firm.  Her words to me:  “Real estate is boring but it pays the bills; it's yours.” Fortunately for me I never found it boring. Closings are like puzzles that need to be put together. Lots of moving pieces:  buyers, sellers, realtors, lenders, the other attorney, a title company, the water company, the tax collector and the list goes on.  Somehow, someone needs to get them all to cooperate to make the closing go smoothly. I loved the challenge then and almost 20 years later, I still do.. Today I rely on the hard-working team Howard taught me to build and I live by the can-do attitude that Scribner taught me.  Our office is a great place to be—I love the people, I love what we do for our customers and I love challenge of getting it right day in and day out.
