Teddy - Founder and Attorney
-
Teddy founded Estel Law to pursue his life long goal of owning and operating his own law practice focused on tax. Seeing the success of other small tax law firms, he decided to set out and create his own practice based on the two pillars of trust and high-quality work.
The name “estel” means “trust” or “hope” and is meant to convey the first pillar upon which the law firm rests. Teddy, through his experience, does not believe any organization, big or small, can survive without trust. Once broken, it often can never be repaired and so Teddy prioritizes this within the firm and between the firm and its clients.
