Our Services
Estate Planning
Establishing an estate plan is one of the most important steps you can take to protect yourself and your loved ones. Proper estate planning not only puts you in charge of your finances, but it can also spare your loved ones of the expense, delay and frustration associated with managing your affairs when you pass away or become disabled.
Probate and Estate Administration
When a loved one passes away, his or her estate often goes through a court-managed process called probate or estate administration where the assets of the deceased are managed and distributed. If your loved one owned his or her assets through a well drafted and properly funded living trust, it is likely that no court-managed administration is necessary, though the successor trustee needs to administer the distribution of the deceased's assets.
Family and Business Succession Planning
No company can survive without an able owner, executive, or shareholder at the helm. In the event of a key member’s sudden death, illness, or retirement, businesses are often left scrambling to recover lost assets and find a replacement.
Civil Litigation
We represent professionals, small business owners, property owners, and other clients with the goal of protecting their assets against potential litigation, judgments, liens, and fraud.
Business Law
Whether you are seeking assistance in choosing the right entity to form your business, or you are beginning to plan your exit strategy from the family business, there are many facets to running a business where getting quality legal advice is an invaluable investment
Real Estate Law
Getting into real estate is a wise investment, but if you’re not careful, you could end up with an expensive problem, and/or facing litigation. Real estate ownership can be risky — you may have to evict a tenant, or someone may be injured on your property. You could even be sued for your personal assets. One lawsuit can have devastating effects on a lifetime of hard work.
