About Maria
Biography
Attorney Cecilia Amo’s estate planning practice focuses on helping families enhance their lives today and secure their futures tomorrow. She is passionate about helping people and has always sought to provide the very highest level of service to her clients.
After starting her career in one of the most prestigious civil rights firms in the world, Cecilia spent years fighting for families who suffered catastrophic injuries and made sure insurance companies gave fair and just compensation for wrongdoing. She’s cared for families left vulnerable and helpless when a loved one was suddenly incapacitated or lost to a tragic accident.
But losses don’t just happen due to the wrongdoing of others. They can happen at any time. Cecilia now aims to protect families from the stress of court and conflict through comprehensive estate planning that is uniquely designed for each client.
AMO LAW: Legacy Planning specializes in creating plans that do more than just preserve and pass on material wealth. We cherish the opportunity to learn your story, hear what matters to you, and help you to discover what’s actually needed to keep your loved ones out of court and out of conflict.
