I am currently in the process of developing a series of seminars concerning various aspects of estate planning and probate law. Each seminar is based on a PowerPoint presentation and is designed to be presented to groups of fifteen to thirty people, although either more or fewer people may certainly attend. Seminars may be expected to run between sixty to ninety minutes including time for questions. Those who attend a seminar will receive a fifteen percent (15%) discount on any estate planning or probate services performed by within twelve months after the seminar.
At this time, only the first
seminar, "The WINGTIP Estate Plan," is completed and ready
to be presented. Other seminars will be added to the list as they are
completed. You can open or download a sample of each available
seminar by right-clicking the green dot ()
before the title (requires Microsoft PowerPoint to
view). A red dot (

indicates that no sample is available at this time.
If you live or work in Harris, Galveston, Brazoria, Fort Bend or Montgomery counties and are interested in hosting a seminar for your group, please feel free to complete the form below. I will contact you to schedule a seminar at a convenient time.
