Mindi Hansen
Ms. Hansen's practice focuses on estate planning, family law, and mediation. Through her estate planning practice, Ms. Hansen works with clients to form estate plans through the drafting of wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and other necessary documents to address each client's specific and individual needs.
