Why I Founded Family Wealth Law
As a fellow parent of two children and business owner, I understand and share your goal of providing safety, financial stability, and lasting security for our children. During my time working in the Probate Court system with a Probate Court judge, I witnessed firsthand the challenges families face within the legal system. I saw clear as day the hostility and conflict that can occur between siblings as a result of parents not having prepared their estate plan correctly. Probate court proceedings are typically held in chambers but are public information. I cannot begin to tell you the amount of emotional conflict and even physical aggression that I saw during that time. All that in the midst of the whole family’s mourning of their loved one.
Through my years of representing immigrants in court, I also saw children be left behind to the government to decide who would take care of them, where they would live, and who would be their guardian. The experiences I have lived motivated me to empower families with a better approach. There is not enough information out there about Estate Planning.It’s seen by many people as something that is only needed for rich people. That could not be farther from the truth. If you have assets, loved ones, and/or minor children in your life that you want to protect , you have to plan ahead.
I established Family Wealth Law, LLC to assist parents, real estate investors, and business owners by providing guidance and support to create an estate plan that safeguards their children, preserves their wealth, and leaves a lasting legacy. An opportunity for them to have peace of mind knowing they did right by their family. They are not OK leaving all the decisions to a judge and are not going to expose their family to have to deal with costs and stresses of having to go through court proceedings just to be able to have access to what you have worked so hard to achieve for them.
You are a busy parent, business owner, or real estate investor… We understand the juggle.

WHY FAMILY WEALTH LAW IS DIFFERENT
Most firms prepare documents.
We help families coordinate their legal plan with their assets, business interests, beneficiary designations, and long-term goals.
Most firms focus only on death.
We also help clients prepare for incapacity, business continuity, and wealth transfer during life.
