I am passionate about helping families create happy and secure futures. I do this by practicing estate planning in a new way, through integrative and holistic estate planning techniques and strategies. I help my clients to think and act beyond the things that they own— enabling them to pass on their wisdom, values, and love in a unique way.
My estate planning practice focuses on helping families protect their loved ones from the inevitable. I guide clients through the often confusing maze of financial and legal decisions to create plans that ensure the well-being of families and the accomplishment of family goals. I will help you to craft a plan that achieves your goals for your loved ones today, and for years to come.
I am a Personal Family Lawyer and a member of Wealth Counsel, a national organization of professionals who design sophisticated planning techniques for individuals and families. I enjoy educating my community and I speak on a variety of topics including family wealth planning, wealth preservation, asset protection of inheritances, and kids protection planning.
I am a graduate of Carnegie Mellon University and Quinnipiac University School of Law, attending both as an academic scholar. I have litigated cases before the Connecticut Supreme, Appellate, and Superior Courts, and am admitted to practice law in all courts in Connecticut and Rhode Island, as well as the Second Circuit Court of Appeals and the United States District Court for the District of Connecticut.

We begin with a comprehensive inventory of everything you own, and everyone you love, and consider it all in a working meeting, called a Family Wealth Planning Session, to guide you to clarify your financial life and legacy goals before we draft a single document.
We work with you throughout every life stage to map out the most likely scenarios for you and the people you love, planning for each as your life, the law, and your assets change over time.
Our Life & Legacy Planning process ensures everything that matters most -- from your financial assets to your values, insights, stories and experience -- are captured and documented during your life and cared for over the generations to come.
Transparency in our process, and our fees … all of which are flat fees, agreed to in advance, based on your choices and with no surprises, ensuring we stay on the same side of the table - supporting you to make a lifetime of great decisions - every step of the way.
Our systems help you get clear and organized, overcoming the exact issues that keep most estate plans from actually working when they are needed most. We help you leave your family with a gift of love, and not a mess.
One-and-done estate plans focused only on money are a recipe for a big mess. We help you throughout every stage of life and be there for the people you love, when you can’t be.
