Dedicated to providing clients with quality service, drawing on over three decades of experience in estate planning and related practice areas.

Ronald M. Otten practices in the areas of estate planning, probate, trust administration, business succession planning, charitable giving, medicaid planning and real estate. Since these practice areas have many sub-categories that cross over into other practice areas, he works closely with other firm attorneys to meet the legal needs of our clients.

Ron has a strong belief in client service. His experience, spanning more than three decades, ranges from the representation of individual clients in simple estate planning matters to the advising of family businesses with complex succession and tax issues. No matter the nature of the issue, Ron applies the same dedication, intelligence and good humor.
