I look forward to working with Jeff for years to come.
We spend our time in law school primarily reading court decisions, statutes and documents written by generations of lawyers.
A lot of will and trust language hasn't really changed since the eighteenth century.
It is easy to follow that path and "write like lawyers."
It's harder to express legal concepts with precision and, at the same time, produce readable documents.

You will not be charged for every tenth of an hour.
Estate planning is much more than "just the facts, Ma'am."
We want you to be able to discuss what's important to you without having to think: "this question is going to cost me $100."
Before we can quote a fee, we need to meet with you and learn about your unique situation.
Only then can we propose a plan that makes sense.
