I help help people eliminate overwhelming debt so they can get the fresh start they deserve!. My mission is to provide quality affordable legal services in a professional and friendly manner. I provide personal attention to my clients in the areas of consumer bankruptcy and family law. After having worked for other law firms most of my legal career, I decided to establish my own corporation in May, 2009. My vision was to assist people in getting out from under the heavy burden of their financial and emotional difficulties and to provide them with a fresh start in life. My focus is on both consumer bankruptcy law (both Chapters 7 and 13) and family law.. I decided I wanted to open my own private practice so that I could be closer to the community that I wanted to serve. I decided I wanted direct interaction with my clients and to give them the individual attention they deserve. It is both more rewarding for my clients and personally satisfying for me.. Over the years I have made it a personal goal and habit to give back to the community. In law school, I started a mock trial program for a local public elementary school. Over the past 12 years I have volunteered for the Los Angeles County Bar Association's Domestic Violence Project, Immigration Legal Assistance Project, the Aids Legal Services Project and most recently their Debtor's Assistance Project. I have volunteered at the Children's Law Center at the Edward Edleman Children's Court and I currently serve on my church's Haiti Committee, which has been assisting the children of Haiti since 2004.

Practice Areas: Tax
Our practice is:. (i) 20% ordinary income tax planning;. (ii) 20% capital gain tax planning;. (iii) 20% estate planning and estate tax planning.. (iv) 10% tax litigation, audits and appeals; and. (v) 10% international tax planning.. Estate tax planning is different than "estate planning": estate planning determines "who gets what". By contrast, estate TAX planning determines the value of what is passed to your heirs. In estate tax planning we use the tools Congress has provided - family limited partnerships, GRATs (grantor retained annuity trusts), private annuities, SCINs (self-canceling installment notes), qualified personal residence trusts, etc - to pass value on to the heirs at reduced value.. In income tax planning we use the tools which Congress has provided - retirement plans and charitable structures - to reduce income taxes, provide for retirement and support worthy causes.. Note that the same structures used for tax planning also have creditor protection benefits. For example, a qualified personal residence trust reduces the value of the principal residence for estate tax purposes; it also reduces the attractiveness of the equity in your home to a future creditor.. Our practice is primarily based on referrals from CPAs, secondarily from other lawyers, financial planners and clients.
