"There are so many things I love about practicing estate law, but the best part is helping clients understand and take ownership over their estate planning. To me, there is nothing better than the look of relief on a client’s face when we have tackled their complex matter head-on and created a tailored plan that meets their unique needs."

Generally, the relationship between grandparents and their grandchildren is facilitated by the parents of those grandchildren, and a grandparent’s involvement in a child’s life will be subject to the discretion of the child’s parents. However, grandparents are sometimes motivated to seek court intervention in the grandparent-grandchild relationship.
