About

I started Caldwell & Reyes after fifteen years at a large firm because I wanted to handle estates the way I'd want my own family's handled — by one lawyer, on the phone, who picks up.

Most of my clients come by referral from their accountant, financial advisor, or from another client. I keep the practice deliberately small. You won't be passed to a paralegal. You'll work with me.

If we're a good fit, I'll tell you. If we're not, I'll tell you that too — and recommend someone better suited.
