What do you like most about your practice area? Helping people get to the next chapter of
their lives. I find family law cases fascinating and fulfilling. They allow practitioners to
work with and help people on a daily basis. They can also be very challenging as there
are a lot of crossovers between family law and other areas of law. Each case is a new
opportunity to learn and do better for the client.

giving each case the individual attention it deserves.

What's the best advice you've ever been given? The best general advice I try to give to
people is to be courageous. I think most people, myself included, often struggle to be
proactive in meeting life’s challenges. Getting prepared, thinking critically, having the
difficult conversations, and making important decisions and plans well in advance makes
for extraordinary results in all things.

What do you like most about your practice area?

Estate Planning, Probate & Elder Law all require compassion, and all involve having difficult
conversations or navigating emotional situations. I enjoy walking through these things with my
clients and making them feel comfortable in what is often an uncomfortable space. This is a very
rewarding practice area to me.
