Diedre Wachbrit Braverman's Peer Endorsements

I must disclose that I have already given Diedre my highest endorsement - I married her. But marriage aside, Diedre is among the most talented estate planning attorneys in the country. Diedre's national reputation is only surpassed by the level of care that she provides to her clients. She chose to practice estate planning and special needs planning law for personal reasons, and I believe that drives her passion for her work. I have met many of her clients and I attest first hand that they love her. I have co-counseled with Diedre on several matters and her legal and analytical skills always amaze me. Needless to say, she is my go to person when I am dealing with particularly complex issues in my own estate planning practice. More importantly, she would be that attorney even if she wasn't my wife. I whole heartedly endorse Diedre!

I have known Diedre for the past 12 years as a fellow member of Wealth Counsel and, more recently, the Southern California Institute. I've had the pleasure of attending one of her seminars on special needs planning as well. Diedre's work is top notch, and I can whole-heartedly endorse her.

I heartily endorse this lawyer's work. Diedre is an exceptional attorney who stands head and shoulders above her colleagues. I have known Diedre since 2002 when we met as members of a national organization for estate planning attorneys. I initially served as one of Diedre's mentors, but she quickly honed her craft and proceeded to take her practice to a new level of client service, counseling, education and innovation. Diedre is one of the brightest and most ethical of attorneys I have had the good fortune to know. She has developed a caring, compassionate practice working with clients with minor children, and her expertise in special needs planning makes her the "go-to" lawyer for many of my colleagues. Diedre continually works to improve her knowledge and skills and usually sets the standard for other attorneys to follow. She is a board certified specialist, and even though she's a Stanford Law alumna, this Berkeley graduate could not recommend her more highly.

I endorse this lawyer's work. I have known Diedre for several years through the Laureate in Wealth Strategies Program offered by the Southern California Institute. Diedre is an exceptionally bright estate planning attorney with a passion and commitment to protecting those with special needs. I have had an opportunity to collaborate with Diedre at the Southern California Institute - analyzing and testing high level estate planning issues, designing solutions and presenting them to clients. She is excellent.
