Local Attorney Earns Prestigious Designation

(PRWEB) March 24, 2008 -- Encino-based attorney Gerald L. Kane (www.estplan.com) was honored with the coveted "Personal Family Lawyer" (www.estplan.com) (PFL) designation in a ceremony held last week in San Francisco, CA. The PFL designation is awarded to estate planning (www.estplan.com) lawyers who have demonstrated an unwavering commitment to their communities by providing sound legal advice that helps individuals and families make the best decisions in their personal, business, legal and financial affairs throughout their lifetime.

Members of the PFL network focus on the needs of growing families to ensure life-long enjoyment of prosperity and financial security, without the traditional hourly billing associated with working with an attorney. They provide the guidance of a trusted advisor throughout, and at the end of, life to guarantee all assets are secured for the future of their families.

Currently, only 47 other lawyers in the country have received this designation.

"I'm thrilled to be included in this elite group of lawyers. I love helping people, being their trusted advisor, and helping them make the best financial decisions for their family for a lifetime. It has been my life's ambition to be this type of lawyer and not just prepare form documents, but develop a real personal relationship with my clients. I'm very fortunate and honored," says Gerald.
