A quality attorney with integrity and legal expertise

Denise was the third attorney who represented me, as the Personal Representative, in a highly contested and litigious probate estate that spanned 10 years. Unlike my prior attorneys who had represented me in this case, she was diligent in her representation and I found her to have the highest leve...l of integrity and legal expertise. The case involved multiple beneficiaries, multiple attorneys and contests to the will and through it all Denise was steadfast. She was always focused on resolution and not on her economic bottom line. If you are seeking an attorney who will look out for your interests I would highly recommend her in the area of probate law.

Estate Planning

Denise was of great help when i needed it most. I didn't know anything about Estate Planning, how a Trust worked, or how to correctly obtain a Will. At my age, widowed, and living off of my retirement I wanted to make sure that I would be treated with respect and that I could trust a lawyer with all ...my personal information. I did not want be taken advantage of because of my age and my apathy to these legal matters. Denise was kind, knowledgable, and a great teacher. It is because of her that I feel comfortable and safe with how and where my life is planned for right now and my future. Thank you Denise!

Trusts and Wills

I wanted my money and assests protected and needed assistance in understand the best way to do so. Denise was very helpful in understanding my situation and what I needed done. She wasn't just caring but also committed in seeing that I receive the best service possible. I owe her many thanks in regar...ds to the Trust and Will she helped set up for me. I would definitely recommend her to my friends and family.

Most reliable attorney

Denise handled my living will. When it comes to the most important issues like who is going to care for your kids and estate if something ever happened to you. You want the most reliable and informed attorney you can find and that's what I got with Denise. She is fast and thorough and is always lo...oking out for your best benefit. Denise is also an incredible person as well. I would recommend her to family, friends, and anyone who is in need of an excellent attorney.
