Biography

A relationship approach to providing peace of mind for your family and your business. That says it all. At Lichterman Law, PLC we strive to provide families and businesses with access to their own personal lawyer. We call it the Lichterman Law Difference. It is my passion to help families and businesses make the best decisions possible throughout their lifetime or existence. We provide all services on a flat-fee only basis, agreed to in advance so there are no surprises. We want you to know you can call us any time without getting charged for the call. And we want to know you and your family as people, not just clients.

In estate planning we work diligently to ensure that your wishes and hopes are followed and that your family members (including young children) are cared and provided for how you want. And we focus on "whole family wealth," not just your tangible assets. A key part of planning with Lichterman Law is the Priceless Conversation, which helps pass along your intangible assets - your values, insights, stories, and experiences . . . your legacy that would otherwise be lost.

For businesses we bring a unique option of a flat-fee or our Business Membership Program. Because we know how important budgets and cash flow are to the proper functioning and growth of any business, we provide you with these options so that you can know ahead of time what our fee will be, so you can concentrate on the more important task of running business.
