About Eric
Biography
I concentrate my practice in the areas of estate planning and administration, tax and business planning, elder law and disability planning, and trust, estate, and tax litigation.
I have authored chapters for Massachusetts Continuing Legal Education Inc. (MCLE)’s New England Law Practice Collection. I am the current Editor in Chief of the Rhode Island Bar Journal, and have had articles published on a variety of estate planning topics in Massachusetts Lawyers Weekly, Rhode Island Lawyers Weekly and the Bar Journal. I am a lecturer on estate planning and asset protection for the Massachusetts Bar Association, Rhode Island Bar Association, and National Business Institute.
I have appeared and successfully argued several cases before the Massachusetts Appeals Court. I helped to create and implement the Rhode Island Pooled Trust, the first such trust for special needs individuals in the Ocean State. In addition, one of my notable areas of expertise is planning for individuals with interests in both New England and Florida.
