She is wonderful and will come to your home to meet with you (at least pre-pandemic).

She did our wills about 10 years ago and has helped with several updates. She has been very generous with her time when I have had quick questions about how to title property or list insurance policy beneficiaries.

Truly brilliant. She is admitted in 5 states and had an LLM in tax. Those with higher net worths or complicated tax matters would benefit most.


Being admitted in 5 states is not actually an impressive credential


I think you’d be very hard pressed to find many attorneys admitted in 5 states. 4 of them required sitting for the bar exam. She waived into dc. I’d actually be surprised if you know any attorneys admitted in those many states.


Actually, depending on the order she was admitted, for DC, MI and GA, she could have been admitted based on reciprocity and without sitting for the exam. VA and MD do not have reciprocity with one another. So you might have only sat for 2.

If I really wanted to pursue it, I have an IL license and was admitted on motion to NY. Moved to VA,I could have sought reciprocity from VA and DC based on my IL and NY license, but decided against it as the federal government just requires you to be licensed in 1 state. So, its not as hard as you make it out to be.

I know it's not discrimination lmao, but are you looking for a woman owned or POC owned lawyer like OP?
Or maybe both!

Someone once said "Save the Whales" doesn't mean "F*** the rest of the fish." In other words, I'm pretty sure white male lawyer will be fine.

+1

I'm a minority, and all of this nonsense is so tiresome and has long passed the point where it is helping anyone or society.
