| Practice Area: |
Tulare is in the heart of the Central Valley of California. Tulare (~70,000) and Visalia (~150,000) provide a mix of affordable urban and rural housing, as well as excellent choices of both public and private schools. Bakersfield and Fresno, which are only an hour away, offer the conveniences of larger cities (airports, sporting events). Our valley climate makes this area an outdoor enthusiast’s dream. Hiking through the sequoias, skiing down the Sierras, costal fishing, wine tours and a host of other outdoor activities are just a short drive away. |
