also known as Susan I. Jean
I have chosen to focus my practice in the area of estate planning. Although the concerns and goals my client and family have are common, each person comes to me with a unique personal, family, financial, and medical, history that are hers or his alone. I enjoy the process of bringing my knowledge and experience to bear in crafting a plan that will work for my clients and their families.

I feel that my job is to help clients structure their thinking about estate planning issues, and then I put their decisions in writing. I pride myself that my clients understand what their estate planning documents say and how they work. Thank you for the kind words!

Living Trust
Susan Jean was exceedingly thorough as we developed the living trust. Every question was answered in great detail..I appreciated the fact that she brought up matters that I was unaware of in the process. She had previously drawn up my will after my wife's passing, so I was familiar with outstanding...
Thanks, Gary! I hope that the written review, not the "I do not recommend", is what you intended to say : ) Helping clients think through family issues is a large part of the fun of my job. Thank you!

Retired Educator

She is...
Estate planning is like many (probably most) fields in the law ... a "fill in the blanks" cookie cutter estate plan may or may not work. And by the time you find that it doesn't work, it may be very difficult to change. Glad I could help!
