Sarasota Florida Wills Trusts Estates Lawyer

For the past two decades I have represented individuals in Southwest Florida (Sarasota, Bradenton, Lakewood Ranch, University Park, Naples, Ft. Myers, St. Petersburg and Tampa) in the areas of estate planning, tax planning, elder law, asset protection, probate administration & litigation and guardianship proceedings. I also have extensive Florida legal experience representing Florida corporate entities in business transactions, succession planning & tax audits.  

My clients include both young and older couples, couples with minor children, large and small business owners, individuals looking to protect their assets from creditor claims, family members in the probate administration of a decedent's estate and in estate  disputes, and relatives of individuals who need to have a guardianship established. People such as these and many others know that they will receive high quality legal representation based on my experience and integrity. Other lawyers, both inside and outside the state of Florida, have referred clients to me in my focus areas. I am honored by their confidence.

I pride myself on my ability to form long lasting relationships with my clients (individuals and business owners).  It is my goal to provide you with personalized attention, high quality legal service and my years of  expertise. Our legal services are tailored to your unique needs. My reward is satisfied clients!

Call me to schedule an appointment in my Sarasota or Lakewood Ranch office.  We can also visit you at home, if it is difficult for you to get around, or your office to accommodate your schedule.
