General Info
I am a licensed Pennsylvania attorney, practicing in Allegheny County and, more specifically, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. I concentrate my practice in the areas of probate, estate planning, and elder law. These areas of practice have many specific subfields. My approach to practicing law is based on a very simple philosophy... every person is important. I believe that practicing law is about more than statutes and rules. Practicing law is about respect. Even if you are not my client, I believe that all people add to society and deserve respect; therefore, I believe that you are important. I have heard it said that finding the right attorney makes all the difference. I firmly believe that I have the perception, understanding, and experience to help you with your legal needs. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact me.
