Firm Profile

I offer legal services and advice to individuals and families, specializing in estate planning and administration (wills and trusts), taxation, and the general legal needs of people in the greater Boston area. I take pride in being a good listener, and in tailoring my legal advice and services to my clients’ particular needs and styles. I do not handle files – I advise, assist, and represent people.

Over the years I have learned that each matter a suburban lawyer handles for a client is often the most important or stressful event in that client’s life at that time. I try to give each client and each matter the professional care and attention I would want given to my own concerns – and with due regard for time and expense. My practice has grown as satisfied clients recommend me to their friends, relatives, and business colleagues.
