About Melissa
Biography
I help clients preserve their hard-earned assets through thoughtful estate planning. I create individualized estate plans, which meet the particular needs of their family. I draft wills, trusts, advance health care directives, powers of attorney for finance, and other estate planning documents. I also assist clients with trust and estate administration after the loss of a loved one and represent clients in probate court proceedings, when necessary.
