Wills & Trusts

Sonoma County Living Trusts and Estate Planning Attorney

It is never too soon to have a will or a living trust. You can leave it up to the state to decide how to administer your estate or you can decide yourself. When the courts are involved there is a price tag for its services. The cost of doing nothing – whether measured in time or dollars – is far more expensive than the cost of planning ahead.

At the I am mindful of clients’ time and financial resources. Understanding each client’s individual needs and concerns is a priority. In estate planning, there are a number of ways to arrive at the same result, so it is important for me to know and understand each client’s goals in order to see which approach will work best.
