Clients Say

I believe meaningful legal counsel starts with understanding your goals, concerns, and perspective. My role is to offer practical solutions that align with your objectives and navigate the complexities of tax and business law. 

My practice spans major areas of tax, business, and estate planning. I assist individuals and businesses by identifying tax risks and consequences in business transactions, including buying or selling a business. I also advise on tax planning strategies and developing effective estate-planning solutions tailored to your needs. 

Tax law is a dynamic field, composed of statutes, regulations, rulings, and case law. I analyze these authorities, apply them to your situation, and provide clear, actionable advice to help you make informed decisions. 

Collaboration, responsiveness, and respect are the cornerstones of my approach. I value strong relationships and believe that every client deserves attention and care. A principle I hold close is, “Good manners are the lubricating oil of society,” a philosophy I strive to live by daily.
