Hi, I’m Chris. Each client I serve comes with unique needs, whether they are coming with separate assets they built before their marriage, they are facing the blending of families with children from different relationships, or perhaps they’re expecting an inheritance that must be kept separately. My goal and my practice is to ensure that each client thoroughly understands every option available to best protect their interests and move forward with the marriage with confidence!

I have represented individuals and business owners with different estate sizes, ranging from having no assets but expecting a small inheritance to multi-million dollar estates.

One of my proudest moments was when a client followed up with me and thanked me for my advice to also include her investment portfolio as part of the prenuptial agreement. She initially only set out to protect her home with her prenuptial agreement, but during her marriage her small investment accounts grew tremendously. Because the investment accounts were included as her separate property in the prenup, she was able to keep them after her divorce even though it was by far her largest asset and would have otherwise been considered property of the marriage, and therefore, subject to splitting with her ex-husband.

I partner with each client not only to help them achieve their goals, but I also work with them to approach the agreement and their prospective partner in a way that helps the relationship rather than diminish it. And I guide my clients through the prenuptial agreement process and beyond! I always hope they never need the agreement, but if they do, then my clients know they will be okay no matter what happens.
