Biography
I have been in practice for over 30 years and have done everything from domestic law to various types of public service work, including serving as a hearing officer for professional licensees charged with violating their ethical rules and representing some of the most vulnerable in our population, children in foster care. I am a native Delawarean, which is becoming increasingly rare, as many people continue to relocate here from neighboring states. Our firm helps new arrivals by conducting seamless real estate settlements and then welcoming many of those same clients back to assist them in updating or finally making their estate plan. My current work in estate planning has been by far the most rewarding to me, as I have been able to meet and get to know people of varied backgrounds to determine and accomplish their end of life goals and wishes. I enjoy working with elderly people especially and am always willing to help a former, current or new client any way I can.
I have raised three wonderful daughters, who are successful adults and I am proud of having done so. My personal interests and hobbies include gardening, cooking, yoga and travelling.
