Why I Became an Attorney:

When many clients first come to see me, they’re feeling dread about both the discussion and the process of setting up their estate plan. This is understandable since most people don’t love confronting death.

What I enjoy most is seeing a client’s relief and excitement once they understand the simplicity of the process and feel at peace again, knowing that their estate is in order.

I love helping clients go from saying things like, “I’ve been dreading this for a long time,” to, “That wasn’t so bad! I should have done this a long time ago.” I never get tired of hearing a client say, “That wasn’t as hard as I thought it would be!” or “I feel so much better now,” after we finish creating their estate plan.
