Helping Families When It Matters Most. My legal practice focuses on elder law & estate planning.

My legal practice focuses on elder law, estate planning and disability issues. My firm provides quality traditional legal services to all of our clients by listening to their special needs, understanding what is important to them, and delivering practical and realistic solutions that are designed to satisfy their specific goals. Because of our strong commitment to personal attention, compassion and professionalism, we often serve several generations within a family or different branches of the same family. We strive to build long lasting relationships with individuals, families and professional fiduciaries within our community, and are extremely proud of the fact that our clients often recommend us to their family, friends and colleagues.

Most of us are never taught how to talk about death. That can lead to awkward phrases, silence, or attempts to make someone’s grief feel smaller.

People who have experienced loss share what helped, what hurt, and why sincere presence often matters more than finding perfect words.

When a child turns 18, parents may no longer have automatic access to medical information or the authority to make health care or financial decisions. A young adult estate plan can include an Advance Health Care Directive, HIPAA authorization, and power of attorney so trusted parents or loved ones can help when needed.

Before the next trip, semester, or move, help your young adult put these basic documents in place.

Being the child who helps Mom every day does not automatically give you legal authority to handle her finances or speak for her when needed. That distinction catches many families by surprise. A little planning before a crisis can remove a lot of unnecessary friction later.

Assisted living is not the only option when an older adult begins needing more support. In-home care, adult day programs, PACE, Medi-Cal home and community-based services, and home modifications may help some people remain safely in their communities.

A nearly finished estate plan cannot protect anyone. Documents usually need to be properly signed, witnessed, notarized, and stored before they can do their job. This Halloween, take care of the paperwork that has been haunting your to-do list.

Do not let an outdated plan become the scariest thing in the drawer. My firm can help you give it a quick review.

When was the last time you actually looked at the beneficiary named on your 401(k), IRA, or life insurance, and do you know if it tells the same story as your estate plan?

Signing a trust is not the same as funding it. Real estate, bank accounts, investments, and other assets may need to be retitled or coordinated with the plan. When funding is incomplete, families can still face probate, delays, or results that do not match the original intent.

If your trust is signed but the assets were never coordinated, the work may not be finished. This is a good week to take a closer look.
