“My mother died long before her time, bringing home the fact that immortality does not run in the family. When I decided to start my own practice, I felt that estate planning and settlement was an area where I could offer people something special.”
– Barbara Cane

Admitted to practice in New York, Barbara is a member of the Association of the Bar of the City of New York, and the Philanthropic Planning Group of Greater New York.

Barbara speaks frequently on estate planning matters and charitable giving to a wide variety of professional & community audiences. In the past seminar venues have included:

  • WNET-13
  • WNYC (New York Pubic Radio)

  • United Hospice
  • American Cancer Society
  • NAPFA (National Association of Financial Advisors)
  • UJA Federation of Westchester
  • NAMI (National Alliance for the Mentally Ill)
  • Transplants Save Lives
  • The Yiddish Book Center

Barbara writes widely and has had pieces to entertain and inform the public in a column entitled “Willpower” and to inform financial advisors in the pages of “Financial Planning” magazine. She was honored for service to her local community by United Hospice of Rockland County in 2000 for service, by the Rockland Development Council in 2007 and by the JCC of Rockland in 2011.
