My legal practice is concentrated on estate planning and administration, business planning and real property.
Advice on Real Property, Estate Planning, Business Entities and Business Succession Planning.
My clients' concerns are with their family, their business, their property and their estate plan. The good news is that all of those concerns can be addressed and a plan made--and the result is no more lying awake at night thinking about any of that!
Your estate plan and your business plan can be dovetailed together for a seamless and functional program that you can enjoy implementing because--it works.
I recommend a free consultation with me (307.200.1914) because each person's situation is unique. I also recommend taking a look at some of the articles I have written on this website, like here: Business Succession Planning or on your business type, here: a Wyoming LLC and information about the right kind of estate plan for me, here: my estate plan.
I also counsel clients on residential and commercial purchases and sales, including title work. This is often done in conjunction with estate planning and administration, which frequently involves creation and sale of business entities and distribution of assets. My clients are entrepreneurs, ranchers, farmers, executives, retirees and families. My approach to planning is to emphasize listening and thoroughly understanding your needs and objectives, and providing information and strategies to reach your goals.
After 20 years in a top rated law firm in Oregon, I moved to Wyoming in 2008 and have practiced law in the Cheyenne area ever since. I grew up in Wyoming and graduated from Platte Valley High School in Saratoga, Wyoming. I have also worked as a corporate trustee for a mid-sized bank in Wyoming.
I understand the desire of my clients to be better informed on estate planning, real property and business matters.
