About Debbie Babb
California Estate Planning Attorney
Debbie Babb built her practice on a simple belief: estate planning should feel personal, not transactional. As a third-generation attorney, she brings both deep legal expertise and genuine warmth to every client relationship, taking the time to truly understand your family, your wishes, and what matters most to you.
A Smith College and USC Law School graduate, she went on to become a partner at Big Law firm, Allen Matkins, before finding her true calling in estate planning, a deliberate transition driven by a desire to do work that made a lasting difference for the families she serves.
She approaches every plan with the same care and precision she would want for her own family, so you can move forward with real confidence and peace of mind.
