Lindsay H. Altamirano, Esq. Estate Planning Attorney

Lindsay H. Altamirano is passionate about...

assisting individuals and families plan for the future and life’s changes, supporting people through sensitive situations, and helping people navigate the law. Lindsay started her career practicing insurance defense litigation, but soon realized that she wanted to have a more direct and positive impact on individuals. After stepping away from insurance defense, Lindsay worked for a non-profit organization in Washington D.C. that advocated for women and girls with disabilities directly to different factions of the federal government and the various relevant bodies of the United Nations.

Although this fulfilled Lindsay’s background in Peace Studies and International Legal Studies, Lindsay decided it was time to merge this impact with legal practice. As a result, Lindsay began focusing on trusts and estates law. Lindsay worked for several years at a Southern California firm focusing on estate planning, special needs planning, trust administration, probate, conservatorships, and elder abuse. After several years at this firm, Lindsay made the decision to open her own practice providing estate planning, trust administration, and probate to individuals and families throughout Southern California.

When not planning estates, Lindsay enjoys spending time with her husband, her two daughters, and her stepdaughter.
