As an Elder Law and Estate Planning Attorney, my heartfelt mission revolves around supporting families in crafting comprehensive estate plans that not only safeguard their assets but also honor their inherent dignity. With over a decade of dedicated experience in elder law, estate planning, disability rights, and social justice, my passion lies in serving the unique needs of older adults, strategizing with families, and advocating for individuals with psychiatric, intellectual, and developmental disabilities.

Beyond my professional pursuits, I find immeasurable joy in being a devoted wife and mother of two precious children. Family is the bedrock of my values, and this understanding deeply influences my approach to legal practice. Through my journey, I have had the privilege of successfully representing clients in federal and state courts, administrative hearings, and special proceedings. I champion their rights and interests in critical matters, including Medicaid eligibility, guardianship, probate, and civil rights.

I am licensed to practice law in both Georgia and New York. I am also a licensed social worker. This multidimensional background allows me to provide a holistic and empathetic perspective to my clients. Together, let’s build strong families and resilient communities, where every individual’s rights and dignity are cherished.
