Why did you join ABWA?

I joined ABWA because I was invited by my dear friend, Michelle Sullivan.

Tell us about your business.

I am an attorney certified by the state bar of California as a specialist in estate and trust law. I help families prepare for and deal with incapacity and death.

Where do your clients come from?

The vast majority of my clients come from word of mouth referrals from existing clients, other attorneys, accountants, and financial advisors. A few find me on the internet, and a very few find me in the phone book.

How can ABWA members help you grow your business?

ABWA members can help me grow my business by referring people to me for consultation. We don’t charge for an initial consultation because it is a great way for potential clients and me to mutually determine if we are the “right fit.”

Tell us a secret or something about yourself people would be surprised to learn about you.

It’s not such a secret but many people do not know I am passionate about art and painting and believe that art lifts the spirits of individuals and communities.
