Most people put off estate planning because it feels complicated, overwhelming, or like something only ultra wealthy families need.
We believe every family — regardless of background, income, or immigration status — benefits from having a clear plan for the future.
This practice was built to be different: no intimidating offices, no confusing legal jargon, no judgment. Just honest guidance from an attorney who genuinely cares about your family's future.

Hi! I’m so glad you’re here!
As an experienced estate planning attorney I have seen first hand what a blessing it can be to your loved ones to have an estate plan in place when something unforeseen occurs. I have also held the hand of many surviving spouses and children who are left with the legal mess caused by a lack of planning.
Families end up in probate court. Loved ones are left guessing. And tens of thousands of dollars go to legal fees instead of to the people you wanted to take care of.
Most of the time, it's preventable.
That's why I built this practice: to make sure families are protected before it's too late, and to make the process simple enough that people actually do it. Whether you are early to the game or feel this is long overdue, I am committed to understanding your specific estate planning goals and will work with you collaboratively to ensure your wishes are honored and maximum protection of your assets, and your loved ones is achieved.
As a busy mom, I understand that life gets busy and estate planning feels like something you'll get to eventually. But eventually isn't a plan — and I'm here to make this as painless as possible so you can [finally!] check this off of your to-do list.
Cindy earned her J.D. from Trinity Law School where she served as Student Body Vice President for two consecutive terms as well as on the board of the Trinity Law School Federalist Society.
While in law school, she was selected to serve as a student attorney for the Trinity Law Clinic at the Orange County Rescue Mission and was an American Jurisprudence Award recipient.
After passing the California Bar Exam in and earning the privilege to practice law in 2014, she dedicated her focus strictly to the practice area of estate planning, trust administration, and probate.
In addition to serving her clients, she is an Adjunct Professor at California Desert Trial Academy College of Law where she teaches Wills, Trusts, and Estates to the next generation of attorneys.

Are you looking for more than the perfectly curated grid and scrolling posts that tell you all about the million-dollar results but somehow leave out the messy middle? Which only leaves you asking the elusive question, how did they do that? That's exactly why I created the behind-the-scenes podcast.
