Every adult should have an estate plan, especially parents, unmarried couples, and single people of retirement age. A good estate plan brings peace of mind. Peace of mind that you have taken care of the people who depend on you and made things easier for your loved ones. Peace of mind that your important personal decisions will be respected when you are no longer able to communicate them. Peace of mind that you have minimized confusion, disputes, delays, expenses, taxes, and more if you suddenly lose capacity or die.. Exploring these topics and making decisions can be difficult, especially if you have not administered a loved one's estate or trust, have never experienced serious illness firsthand, or have a small number of trusted individuals in your inner circle.. Patrick uses clear communication, patient listening, and years of experience to educate, advise, and empower his clients. Our law firm's step-by-step process ensures that clients' estate plans are comprehensive and thorough without overwhelming them with too many decisions at once.. In addition to (1) preparing wills, trusts, and estate planning for Illinois residents, Patrick can also help with (2) preparing and negotiating premarital agreements for Illinois residents, (3) advising trustees in the uncontested administration of Illinois trusts, and (4) advising beneficiaries of Illinois trusts concerning their rights and reviewing trust administration documents.

Practice Areas: Estate Planning

I am an estate planning and estate administration attorney. I pursued a career in estate planning because of the how important family is to me. "Family" consists of more than the people who are related to you by blood, but the eyes of the law may not recognize your "chosen" family when you are gone. I am grateful that I can help empower my clients with peace of mind to protect their families. The legal process doesn't have to be difficult and my goal is to simplify the process as much as possible for my clients.. I've always loved giving back to others and enjoy being active in my community. I lead a woman's networking group and am a member of the local Woman's Club. I am passionate about mentoring others who desire pursuing a career in the legal field.. I enjoy spending my free time with my husband and love "binge-watching" a good docu-series.
