Estate Planning 75%

We counsel and guide families through the planning process to make sure our clients are protected in the event of incapacity or death, as well as their family, their assets and their legacy.

17 years

75%
Probate 20%

We strive to provide our clients with plans that usually do not have to go through the probate process (mostly trust-based plans). However, when clients have a will-based plan or no will at all, we help them go through the Probate process.

20%
Immigration 5%

I have experience with immigration cases even before I went to law school. My practice concentrates on estate planning but I still help clients with their immigration needs.

Excellent Attorney and Great client care.

I was refer to Yahima for a child custody case. The important thing to me in my case was knowing what was going on. She was always available to answer my questions and explained the process clearly. After my case finished, she provided me with all my case documents for my records. I would definitely... recommend her to my friends and family.

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.
