I practice exclusively in the areas of wills and trusts, incapacity planning and estate administration. I offer comprehensive legal guidance tailored to each of my client’s unique needs, ensuring their wishes are respected and their assets protected. My practice encompasses drafting wills, including multiple wills for business owners, trusts and powers of attorney, while also advising on probate tax-efficient strategies, to preserve wealth and maintain family harmony. In my estate administration practice, I assist individual and institutional executors with probate, all aspects of the administration and fulfilling their fiduciary duties. I have experience dealing with complex estates, particularly with private company shares, foreign assets and navigating complicated family dynamics. I often collaborate with tax accountants, wealth advisors and other professionals to provide a seamless and efficient estate plan and estate administration process.

I also hold a Trust and Estate Practitioner (TEP) designation with the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners (STEP) Canada. I am a member of the Ottawa Estate Planning Council and a former member of the Board of Directors of Villa Marconi Long-Term Care Centre in Ottawa.
