Babette Bach to Volunteer to Build a Preschool in Ecuador

Babette B. Bach, Esquire is volunteering her time with the charity People Helping People in August 2012 to participate in building a preschool in Ecuador.   In Ecuador, the government will normally not initiate or take part in building a new school, especially in small communities.  The children rely on the adults in the village or the charity of others to build the school and provide the initial supplies for the classroom.  Once a school has been built, the government will staff and maintain the school.   Babette and her partner, Rob Patten, are delighted to be part of such a special project.

Services Testimony with Babette and Fred (VIDEO)

By Elder Law, Firm News, Tax Law

 

Babette: At Bach Elder Law, we are committed to viewing our clients and their multi-generational families in a very holistic way. We try to be very active listeners. We want to preserve the integrity of the family and give them the level of service that they need, particularly when they’re in crisis, because when you’re in crisis you need to be taken care of, you need to have your phone call returned, you need to know your case is a priority, so that you can feel the relief that someone is servicing you and solving the problems for you.

Fred: One of things that I enjoy so much in working with Babette, having done this for a lot of years, is the standard of excellence that we have in the office. Nothing goes out of that office unless it’s perfect, unless it’s been reviewed, unless it’s well thought out, unless it’s in the best interests of the client and achieves the best possible result for the client. Nothing else is acceptable.

Babette: In order to obtain the type of services and the level of knowledge that we would like to present to our clients, we are very involved in the Florida Bar. I am often putting on CLEs on behalf of the bar as chair of the elder law section. I have frequently written articles or lectured in the field of elder law. I am frequently attending different continuing legal education programs, and also tracking programs that are provided by the National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys so that I am appraised of all of the newest events that occur in my field.

Fred: In the field of taxation, you must absolutely be current and up to date. In addition to practicing with Babette, I am also a tax law professor at Stetson Law School, which is in St. Petersburg, Fla., approximately 30 miles north of here. In order to stand in front of 25 law students two and three times a week, you must be absolutely current in the tax law. You have to know what you’re talking about and as a result of that experience, the give and take with students, you are obligated to know and understand the law including the most recent changes and additions to the tax law.

About Us: Fred (VIDEO)

By Firm News

Fred: Hello. My name is Fred Jacobs. My interests outside the practice of law are biking, rowing and going for long walks on the beach in our beautiful state of Florida. Even though I’m an old guy, I still bike 25 to 50 miles per day. I also get the opportunity to go to work everyday in my boat. In addition to having a slip behind my house here in Florida, I rent a slip downtown and I actually get to work in my Boston Whaler. Sometimes it’s so much fun that I’ll take the long way home and go out into the Gulf of Mexico, which is an unusual way to commute in this day and age. I’m also working on my first novel, which is a mystery in the format of Robert B. Parker who wrote the Spenser novels. One of my favorite things is to row across Sarasota Bay and back in my rowing skull, a distance of approximately eight miles. Not bad for an old guy.
