Estate Planning, Trust Administration, and Probate

Practical, personal legal help for families throughout California and Nevada

When you work with my office, you work directly with me

I help families plan ahead, and I help them through the legal work that follows the loss of a loved one. My office is in South Lake Tahoe, and I am licensed in both California and Nevada. That matters for the many families who own property or live on both sides of the state line.

I return calls, explain your options in plain language, and give you a clear picture of costs before work begins.

How I Can Help

Estate Planning
Living trusts, wills, powers of attorney, and health care directives, including planning for a loved one with special needs.

Trust Administration
Guidance for successor trustees, from the first steps after a death through final distribution.

Probate
Representation in probate court when an estate must pass through the court, including small estate options when the law allows them.
