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 often joke that, done correctly, an estate plan allows family members to still sit down to Thanksgiving dinner together, and that is always in the back of my mind. I thank you!
