Every Step Of The Way In Estate Planning
Attorney Ross has extensive experience in family and children’s services, including serving as a former peace officer and children’s victim/witness advocate with the district attorney’s office. There, he learned firsthand how important it is for parents to have an emergency plan that incorporates care for their children. Without the proper legal documents of guardianship in place, children under the age of 18 can be placed into foster care through Child Protection Services. Once CPS is involved, it can take significant time to get the children into the care of a loved one, such as an aunt or uncle or grandparent.
This background has shaped how attorney Ross represents clients with estate planning and probate proceedings. He offers all clients a free child protection program designed to outline the care for their children if they should pass. Doing this helps his clients protect their children and gives them peace of mind knowing their children will be cared for according to their wishes.
