Biography
We provide an educational approach to estate planning, including Zoom sessions for reviewing personalized documents from the comfort of your home. My office is situated in Novi, Michigan, and I also offer estate planning services in Grayling, Michigan. To remain up-to-date with Michigan Law and resources, I regularly participate in seminars hosted by the Institute of Continuing Legal Education. I have earned an Estate Planning Certificate from the extensive seminars required by the State Bar of Michigan, in collaboration with the University of Michigan and other law schools in the state.
