Cookman Law

Specialties

I specialize in planning for families with special needs, and also assist with Medi-​Cal planning. I really enjoy working with families and helping with their estate planning, trust administration and probate law needs. I am a certified specialist in estate planning, trust and probate law with the State of California.

History

Established in 2015.

I come from a family of attorneys myself — my father was dean of Temple University Law School, my stepmother is an assistant U.S. attorney, and my grandfather received a law degree, then managed his aunt’s cannery. I worked at small firms for about 7 years, then decided to start my own practice in August 2015. It has been a wonderful time so far!

Business Owner

I am surrounded by boys — my husband (who helps at the office), our two young sons, and our dog Ulysses, who is a boxer-​pit bull mix. I enjoy practicing yoga, reading dystopian fiction, and having deep spiritual conversations with friends.
