Attorney Beckett has loved the City of Hartford since attending Law School at the University of Connecticut, in the beautiful and historic West End. Her love of 20th century architecture is evident; the office is a historic Victorian house on majestic Prospect Avenue which she lovingly restored into a warm and welcoming office space. She has devoted her practice to helping individuals, families and small businesses in the greater Hartford area and across the State. She prides herself in providing the best legal services to her clients with the assistance of her experienced and friendly staff.
Ms. Beckett’s firm focuses on a few main practice areas which include wills, trusts, probate, conservatorships, bankruptcy and special needs planning. The firm treats clients like family, protecting their interests and educating them in the law so that they can make the best possible decisions. We don’t tell our clients what to do – our goal is to teach our clients enough about the law so that they may make the best decisions for themselves. Once a decision is made as to how to proceed in a way that best meets the client’s goals, the firm
will take all appropriate steps to accomplish those objectives.
In order to provide cutting edge and thorough legal services, Ms. Beckett is actively involved in several associations such as Wealth Counsel, National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys, National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys, etc. Each of the associations she belongs to are collaborative and include a national membership of top professionals committed to providing the best service to their clientele.
Ms. Beckett is a graduate of the University of Hartford and received her J. D. cum laude from the University of Connecticut. She is a co-author of Giving – Philanthropy for Everyone and Love, Money and Control, both of which are written for non-lawyers and are available for purchase upon request. Ms. Beckett resides in the City of Hartford with her four children, the oldest of which is continuing the family tradition by attending UCONN. Her love of 20th century architecture is evident; the office is a historic Victorian house on majestic Prospect Avenue which she lovingly restored.
