Estate Planning in Chico, California with Experience You Can Trust
I specialize in Estate Planning, Trusts and Trust Administration, Probate, Wills and Litigation. While I reside in Chico, California I am able to provide remote services as well.
I graduated from Stanford University in 1962. Immediately after graduation, I began Officer Training at Lackland Air Force Base in Texas. Six years later, after serving in the Air Force I decided to pursue a law career.
My legal education began at University of California Hastings College of Law, graduating in 1971. Shortly thereafter, I was admitted to practice law in California effective January 1972. I practiced criminal law for a number of years, as court-appointed counsel representing indigent clients.
While the work didn’t pay much, it provided me a great opportunity to become proficient and comfortable before a judge or jury. While I found this experience valuable, I decided that concentrating on estate planning was my preferred area to practice. Not surprisingly, I have become very good at the process over those many years. Thinking through almost every type of legal issue, from wills and trusts to probate and litigation, has afforded me a deep understanding of the legal process. I am happy to assist clients where I can to provide peace of mind about their estate plan. If I can’t I will direct you to a trusted colleague that can. Other areas of my practice are:
- Personal Injury
- Real Estate
- Family Law
- Business Issues

My guiding principle in law, as in the rest of my life, is what I have come to call “Life in the Flow Lane.” The flow lane is the concept of dealing with life in a way that will deliver the greatest result with the least stress. You can read more about this in my blog, hope to see you there.
