I grew up in the Pacific Northwest and have spent over 35 years practicing law in Seattle. I am a frequent speaker on probate and estate planning, making presentations to the Boeing company, Seattle Central Community College, the financial planning industry, and professional seminars. I also advise and consult with nonprofit groups on planned charitable giving.
Wills
The arrival of a child often prompts parents to complete their estate planning. I prepare the documents necessary to ensure that their loved ones will be well-cared for if they were gone. Usually, those documents include wills, powers of attorney, health care directives (living wills), and sometimes trusts or community property agreements. If a loved one does pass away, I guide clients through probate—the process of transferring titles, distributing assets, and resolving debts.
