Our office is now open (although some are working remotely). We are giving options to meet in person or virtually (phone calls, audio/video meetings, etc.) as we continue to follow CDC guidelines. Our next free virtual “Estate Planning Essentials” workshop will be on Tuesday, March 2, 2021 from 1:00 p.m. until 3:00 p.m. Call (214) 720-0102 to register or sign up online at www.dallaselderlawyer.com. We begin each workshop by asking “What questions do you have about estate planning or elder law?” Then we proceed to answer your questions over the course of the workshop. Our goal is to make it easy for you to attend from the comfort of wherever you reside.
