Thank you for visiting my website. You can also find me on Facebook and on Twitter.
With more than 30 years of legal experience, I am committed to providing clients with the sophistication of a downtown Pittsburgh law firm—but with a personal touch. I furnish not only personalized service, but also accountability and responsiveness, whether clients are individuals, small business owners, insurance companies or publicly-held corporations.
Clients find my suburban community office located at the Wexford Interchange of I 79 convenient and easily accessible. My office is especially convenient for clients living in the Northern and Western suburbs of Pittsburgh – Cranberry Township, Gibsonia, Hampton Township, Mars, Wexford, McCandless, Ross Township, Shaler Township, Sewickley, Moon Township, North Fayette and Robinson Township.
It is my belief that people do not hire a law firm – they hire an attorney. They look for someone with whom they are comfortable. They also look for someone with whom they connect interpersonally. That is why I offer my prospective clients a free 1 hour initial consultation.
A significant part of my legal practice is concentrated in all aspects of estate planning and estate administration, including:
- Wills
- Testamentary Trusts
- Living Trusts
- Special Needs Trusts
- Irrevocable Trusts
- Irrevocable Life Insurance Trusts
- Elder Law
- Wealth Transfer and Tax Planning
- Federal Estate Tax
- Pennsylvania Inheritance Tax
- Fiduciary Income Tax
- Will Contests
- Abuse of Powers of Attorney
- Breach of Duties of Executors
- Breach of Duties of Trustees
