She drafts many complex estate plans, including many types of trusts, last will and testaments, and powers of attorney. Her clients range from high net worth business owners to individuals with more modest assets. She takes great care in shepherding the surviving loved ones of deceased individuals through the complex process of probate administration. She also prepares premarital agreements, federal estate tax returns, handles real estate transactions, and works with family-owned businesses on business succession plans. She lives on the west side of Cleveland with her husband and her two daughters.
