"Estate" is the legal term used to define your property and money. Estate planning attorneys tell you different strategies you can use to transfer your belongings after you die. By planning your estate, you can maximize its value by minimizing taxes and eliminating court costs and interference. Estate planning attorneys also help you control and protect your estate during your lifetime, by writing documents that allow you to transfer property and money to children, charities, or others.

Relationship: Worked together on matter
I met Ms. Stark two years ago at an estate planning conference. Since then, Ms. Stark and I have worked on a number of client matters together. Ms. Stark is not afraid of a challenge and she possesses the qualities, characteristics and intelligence you want your attorney to have. From a professional standpoint, Ms. Stark has been an excellent and well respected member of my team each time we co-counsel on cases together. On the personal side, it has been my pleasure to get to know her better over the past few years and to be able to not only consider her my professional colleague but also a good friend. Ms. Stark has also been an excellent resource on matters involving criminal issues, traffic tickets and business law. I will continue to use Ms. Stark as part of my trusted advisory team, as a resource and as a referral.
