My Approach

In practicing law for over 20 years, I’ve realized that clients at big firms often do not receive adequate individual attention. What I love about practicing law is having the opportunity to take care of people and develop a long term relationship with them. As a solo practitioner, I get to know each of my clients and help them achieve peace of mind with a custom plan that protects them, their assets, and their loved ones.

Estate Planning & Probate Focus

A family trust provides many financial advantages as well as saving time, energy, and possible heartache in the future. Nominating a guardian for minor children, avoiding probate, and establishing a power of attorney in case of emergency are basic reasons why everyone needs an estate plan. Make sure your partner, children, and loved ones are taken care of no matter what.


  • “What a wonderful experience! My friend had just updated her estate plan and she was so pleased with the service she received. She highly recommended Masumi and therefore I reached out as well. When I called, there was an immediate connection and flow to the conversation. I knew I could trust her with this important and sensitive task. From start to finish, she exceeded my expectations. My estate plan is very detailed, complete, legally sound, and it reflects my wishes. I will happily refer her to friends and colleagues.”

  • "“We reached out to Masumi thinking we had a clear understanding of what our business needed in the agreement. Masumi took the information we provided and added everything that was missing. In short, she created the perfect balance of a personalized agreement that also included all of the legalese a layperson would leave out. The important stuff!
