Conti
—Treating Your Family
Like Her Own
elieving that the law is for everyone has
been a driving force for Attorney Michele
Conti throughout her career, leading her
to clients ranging from children to senior citizens
and everyone in between. She’s a firm believer that
legal services should be affordable and accessible to all. And,
in practicing what she preaches, she’s one of the few working
professionals in her field who actually makes house calls as
opposed to forcing clients to come to her.
“A lot of businesses say they treat their clients like family,
but with us, that really is the case,” Conti said. “I meet clients in
their homes and we discuss some of the most difficult topics
imaginable around their kitchen table, just like any family would.
When a client is comfortable, we are provided a rare insight
allowing us to be privy to their concerns and overall goals,
which permits us to better help them, more so than if they were
in a sterile office environment.” And even for those who come
to her, in Conti’s office you’ll find her grandma’s kitchen table,
wobbly legs and all.

guardianship proceedings for both minors and incapacitated
adults. These are cases where a minor or the client’s parent or adult
child is incapable of signing a power of attorney or has a power
of attorney in place that hasn’t been updated with the recent law
changes. The receipt of an inheritance, the retirement of a primary
care doctor or a bank’s rejection of an old document could cause
the Court’s involvement to determine who can make a legal
decision for these folks.”
From age 50 and up, clients are looking at services in regard to
taking care of their aging parents and their own estate planning
needs.
“A lot of my clients have been executors of a parent’s estate
and know firsthand what a challenge that can be. And they don’t
want to put that burden on their loved ones,” Conti said. “It doesn’t
matter if they’re married or single; having everything planned
eliminates confusion and makes things easier on those you leave
behind. I’d rather my clients have the documents and not need
them rather than need them and not have them.”

Some of the services she most frequently provides that
everyone should have, regardless of age and net worth, include
powers of attorney, estate planning and elder law advice, which,
along with tax law, are the focal points of her practice. But the
truth is, people require certain legal protections at every stage
of life that can protect them and their families in the event of
unforeseen circumstances.
When asked about those who are unable to update their
documents, Conti explained, “We are retained to handle many
