Overview
I conduct a general practice of law focused on helping families and family
businesses go where they need to go. My particular emphases are on adoptions, landlord-tenant
relations, estate planning and probate, but I also litigate disputes in all of these areas,
as well as a variety of contract disputes.
My aim is always to assist you and your family in your business and life planning. I want to
be your lawyer.
In all aspects of my practice I am sensitive to costs, not just in dollars and cents but also
in stress. I strive to help you analyze the procedures, costs, the dangers as well as the
ultimate benefits of any given course of action. I discuss with you your goals, likely outcomes
and their effects on you, and best/worst scenarios. Recognizing that, in disputes, you come to
me in distress, my hope is that ongoing discussions like these can assist you by giving you
information and a framework for deciding how to move forward most economically and with the
greatest degree of satisfaction in your life.
