I’m a lawyer licensed in Colorado and California.    I’m currently not in private practice. I’m a government attorney and represent governmental entities. My primary practice is focused on litigation, appeals, and health and public health law.

In my previous life, my practice was focused mostly on elder law and probate litigation.  Elder law concerns older folks and folks with disabilities.  Probate law is all about people who have passed away leaving an estate or people who require special protections, including guardianships and conservatorships.  I also did with estate planning issues, public benefits planning including Medicaid and SSI, and some small business and corporate law.

As for the standard disclosures — this is a blog and cannot be construed as legal advice.  The reason that lawyers want to meet with clients is because there is no way to evaluate any of the myriad possibilities of fact patterns you might encounter, and thereby provide appropriate legal counsel, without that kind of meeting.  You can hire a lawyer or you can represent yourself but please don’t think anything contained on this site is legal advice! Similarly, I have no fact checker and you should verify the details. And don’t post anything confidential — there’s no attorney-client privilege here! I no longer represent clients in private practice. And, of course, my opinions are my own and don’t represent those of the agency I work for or the agencies I represent.
