I’ve been working in Iredell and surrounding counites since 2019 and I’ve come to realize how much of a need there is for good, honest probate attorneys. Honestly, I think that statement applies to the greater Piedmont Triad area, generally. Because of this, I have made it my sole aim to provide clients with two critical things: first, a better understanding of the probate process, which can be quite complex and overwhelming, and second: friendly, responsive, and competent representation as we tackle the probate issues together. I got my start working with a well-known and well-respected attorney in Iredell County but...

Growing up on a small farm in Central Iowa, I learned the importance of hard work, respecting my elders, and contributing locally. I graduated from Iowa State University, and eventually attended law school at the University of Wyoming. I have practiced law for several decades, focusing in recent years on estate planning, and I enjoy it. When my grandfather passed away without a will when I was a young man, my family was devastated, as the government took 70% of his estate. That lasting impression drove me to begin helping people avoid such difficult ends, and instead provide a soft...
