About Denise

I concentrate my practice on protecting elder and disabled clients and their assets. I regularly appear in probate court to obtain guardianship and conservatorship authority for family members whose loved ones are no longer able to make their own decisions, whether it is an elder who has been diagnosed with advanced dementia or Alzheimer's disease, a disabled child who is reaching adulthood, or someone who suffers a traumatic brain injury. I also work to avoid these scenarios by proper estate

Ms. Harvey has proven to have exceptional legal acumen and talent that would be an asset to anyone. An extremely talented and well respected attorney in the legal community, I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a lawyer who knows the law and truly cares about protecting the rights of her clients.

I endorse Attorney Harvey. Her advice is consistent and accurate and she is precisely the type of attorney estate planning clients should consider hiring for their probate matters and beyond.
