Estate Planning 55%

I focus my practice in Massachusetts and Rhode Island estate planning and administration. In additional to drafting wills, I counsel clients on how to transfer their assets in a tax-efficient manner, considering estate, gift and generation-skipping transfer taxes, while also meeting their personal objectives. I help clients reduce their taxable estates and plan for future generations by making lifetime gifts using various methods.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
