Certified Specialist in Estate Planning, Trusts and Probate
Jennifer Elliott is a Certified Specialist by the State Bar of California Board of Specialization. Any licensed attorney can practice estate planning, but only a small percentage are certified as specialists by the State Bar of California. In fact, less than 1% of all lawyers in California have been certified as a specialist in Estate Planning, Trust and Probate law.
Experienced Probate Attorney
When you're facing a probate matter, you don’t want an attorney who deals with just a few estate planning or probate cases every other month. The protection of your family's estate during a probate case, needs a lawyer with substantial probate court and procedure experience. Jennifer has 20 years experience handling these cases.
