You are here:
I can answer questions about living trusts, why you would or would not want one. I can also answer questions about estate tax reduction and advanced charitable giving, family partnerships and asset protection. I may have already answered your question here: www.lifeplanblog.com
I have worked for 23 years with clients and their attorneys to formulate estate plans to meet client goals. I have found many mistakes made by client attorneys and were able to have them corrected. I focus on making sure that beneficiaries are protected from current or future spouses and lawsuits so the wealth stays in the family.
I am an expert in the college planning section of this website
