About Amber
Biography
I focus my practice on estate planning, which includes wills, trusts, and powers of attorney, Medicaid planning, supplemental needs trusts, as well as probate such as deceased estates, trust administration, guardianships, conservatorships, and related litigation and appellate work.
In my personal time, I enjoy traveling with my family and rescuing beagles.
