Claimed Lawyer Profile
Biography
Attorney Martin Alperen is a former police officer and search and rescue team leader who understands the risks that first responders face in service to their communities. Law enforcement officers, firefighters, EMTs, and healthcare providers on the front lines of the COVID-19 pandemic can all benefit from an estate plan that accounts for their own needs if they are incapacitated, as well as their family’s needs if they are no longer alive to support and provide for them. We strive to make our services accessible to first responders so that you can put an estate plan in place without hesitation, rather than waiting until it may be too late.
