About Teresa

 

I strive to meet the specific needs of my clients in a timely, conscientious and cost-effective manner.  I understand that the legal process can be a daunting one, and I work hard to provide a friendly, informative and supportive environment to help make that process as painless as possible for my clients. 

I am a Christian, and bring those beliefs and principles into my dealings with each client.  This means that as a client, you will be treated with the utmost respect, honesty, integrity and fairness.  I hope that I can be of assistance to you with your legal needs.

      She handled my mother's probate, and was caring, compassionate and very competent. She made a tough time less stressful for all of us. I recommend her highly.

      I have had the opportunity to know and work with Teresa for over 18 years. I have sent numerous clients and friends to her for estate planning advice and document preparation. She is knowledgeable, compassionate and responsive in her representation of clients, whether they are doing their estate planning or dealing with a probate matter. I am happy to give her a positive endorsement.
