ABOUT ME
Protecting the livelihood of your business and/or of your future is something we all need to take into consideration at some point or another. Ultimately, it can be difficult to think about as we're forced to face our own mortalities and the idea of a world without our existence. Nevertheless, choosing not to come to terms with these things won't put off the inevitable. If you really care about your family members, loved ones, and the people you'll someday leave behind, then you'll take the appropriate necessary steps to prevent unnecessary stress or heartache once you're gone. Your first step in this direction is to work with an effective and empathetic estate planning attorney.
While, obviously, not everything can be totally in your control, there are things you can do to make the process easier, like creating a will, trust, and/or estate plan. One of the last things your people will want to deal with is figuring out how your property and assets will be distributed. Create a will, trust, and/or estate plan now so they (or the state) don't have to.
This is exactly why I practice law — to help make this process easier. What you need and deserve is an attorney who cares enough to take the proper amount of time to walk you through the steps in a manner that leaves you feeling confident and secure about the days ahead. With me in your corner, you'll have the clarity and direction you need to move forward with your peace of mind intact. If you are living in the Plano or Frisco, Texas, areas, I can help you with the following areas of law:
Wills, Trusts, & Estates
Estate Planning
Medicaid Planning
Guardianship
Probate Law
Business Law
You can trust that your future and business is in good hands when you work with me.
When you're looking for an attorney, there are some key characteristics and strengths that you want — especially in situations where the subject matter is as delicate as designing wills and trusts or probate. I believe you'll come to find that my strengths make me the ideal attorney for handling your family or business affairs. Here's why:
My credentials speak volumes about my credibility. In addition to practicing law for over 30 years, I'm recognized in the Richardson, Frisco, and Plano communities as a voice for topics such as wills, trusts, estates, guardianship, and probate. For more than half of my career, I've been a recognized speaker with the National Business Institute where I regularly engage with audiences on these subject matters.
Your well-being is my number one concern. When we work together, you'll see that I practice these areas of law for all the right reasons. I genuinely care about people and want to use my passions to help as many as I can.
I provide clear guidance. The law can be complicated. I'll work to understand what it is you want to accomplish, then set a game plan in place to make it happen. In addition, I'll break down all those tough, technical terms to make sure you comprehend exactly what's going on.
