After last month’s cover article about our new Attorney, Mark Martella, a former personal injury client of mine called. She told me she was doing fine now, which is great news, but the severity of the accident really put things into perspective for her. She said she never really thought about having an estate plan or what would happen to the members of her family if she were to pass away suddenly. She told me that it was never discussed in her home growing up. So, after the accident, she and her husband created an estate plan, including a will, durable power of attorney, and a living will, and it gave them both some peace of mind. I was very happy for them both. Peace of mind, even in one area of life, is priceless. She went on to say that the reason for the call was that she was so happy that we now have a Trusts and Estates Attorney who can help our clients. She asked if we would set up an estate plan for her parents, and she wanted to give it to them as a gift. She wanted them to have the same peace of mind she now had. I thought that was a wonderful idea. She also asked if I would work with her on a payment plan, and I told her that wouldn’t be a problem. We learned a long time ago to listen to our clients. They will tell us what they need, and we want to be there to help them!

A spice-filled marinade and time do all the work in this recipe that features Middle Eastern flavors.
INGREDIENTS
• 2 tbsp ground cumin • 2 tbsp ground coriander • 2 tsp kosher salt • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper • 2 tsp turmeric • 1 tsp ground ginger
• 1 tsp ground black pepper • 2 tsp allspice • 8 garlic cloves, minced • 6 tbsp olive oil • 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs
What’s the Good News ? “When I am afraid, I put my trust in you.” Psalm 56:3
DIRECTIONS
1. To create marinade, whisk all spices with the garlic and olive oil in a medium bowl. 2. Add chicken to the bowl, coat well with marinade, cover, and let sit in the fridge for at least 20 minutes — or up to 48 hours. Strain off excess marinade before cooking. 3. Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Grill thighs for 10–12 minutes on each side, or until a meat thermometer reads 165 F. 4. Serve with rice, vegetables, or pita bread with tzatziki.
