Practicing law in Clearwater since 1980, we focus on residential and commercial real estate, title insurance, estate planning and administration, business and transactional law, and litigation avoidance.
I have always practiced under the description "Attorney and Counselor at Law", characterizing myself as an Attorney, having knowledge and understanding of the law; but more importantly, using that knowledge to give informed counsel and advice to my clients - applying the rules of law to the specific client's current circumstances and needs.I establish a comfortable rapport with clients, listening, advising and teaching them what they need to know to obtain the best possible outcome.
My clients consider me their "family lawyer" and call upon me with any issue for advice or referral to other trusted counsel. We hope this website will be helpful to keep me in mind as your "family lawyer", and to advise or remind you of the services we provide and to use as a referral tool. We invite you to send us your email address so we can share helpful information from time to time.

Life and the law can be complicated - and so can be dying and the law.
One thing is for sure - intentional estate planning is much better than accidental.
Everything we own when we die is going somewhere and somehow.
Estate planning then is the process of determining what we want to happen and deciding how to make it happen as smoothly and efficiently as possible (preferably without probate).
It seems to be human nature to procrastinate about estate planning, probably finding it unpleasant to think about dying, or as if thinking about it might bring it closer.

Documentation either prevents problems or is crucial to an efficient resolution of a problem.
Unfortunately, we often don't realize the importance of such documentation until a problem develops, and then it is usually too late.
When starting or acquiring a business, it is important to recognize the need to separate the income, expenses and activities of that endeavor from one's personal stuff or other business interests.
That is normally done by establishing a business entity, like a corporation or limited liability company, to add a layer of personal liability protection.
