Introducing Tim
Tim spent more than 30 years helping people as a firefighter before going to law school and becoming an attorney. While he studied various areas of law he knew that whatever area he chose it had to be something that satisfied his desire to help people. Finally, based on his personal experience and training, he decided to go into estate planning, because it most closely fit his goal to keep helping people plan for and deal with some of the most challenging situations they can face. Starting in 2014 Tim practiced estate planning in Santa Rosa, California until a devestating wild fire took his home in 2017. Subsequently, he moved to Medford, Oregon, where he continues serve clients in both states.

Document Review
Often folks have an existing plan, or individual documents, such as a trust, will, advance directive or power of attorney that is old or from out of state. I am happy to review those documents with you and help you decide if they still meet your needs, or if you might want to update or replace them with documents that more accurately reflect your current situation.
04.
Trust Administration,
Probate, or
Simple or Small Estate Affidavits
I offer assistance with probate or the simple or small estate affidavit process. If you have been named as the personal representative or executor of someone's will, or need to settle the estate for someone who did not have a will, I can help you through that process.
If you are an acting Trustee and have questions regarding your duties, responsibilities, and the administration of a Trust, I can help as much or as little as you need to feel comfortable in your roll as Trustee.
If you fail to plan,
you are planning to fail.
