It was a particular pleasure recently to provide estate planning advice to Vicky Malley of Oakland, California. Mrs. Malley turned out to be the mother of Counting Crow's bass player, Matthew Malley, which made it particularly fascinating for us. In any event, she was a joy to work with.

Many thanks to friend and client, Sarah Foltz, for providing the referral.
