Practice Areas
Divorce
Even a simple divorce can be stressful. From the initial filing to the final decree, we guide you through every step. We provide you with the legal information you need in order to make the best decisions regarding custody, visitation, support, and property division.
General Civil Litigation
We handle lawsuits that involve breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, partnership disputes, and business succession issues.
Business Transactions
Whether you are starting a new venture, or growing the business you run now, we can help. We guide you through the formation process, helping you choose the business entity that is the best fit for you and your partners. We also draft, negotiate, and review all types of business contracts.
If you have not yet planned your estate, there is no time like the present. We provide the tools you need in order to plan for the future and make your wishes clear to your heirs. From the simplest will to complicated trust structures, we can help you achieve your legal goals.
Probate and Estate Administration
We guide executors and representatives through the probate process. We draft all documents that are necessary to pay debts and taxes, disperse assets, and close the estate.
Sometimes, the probate process does not go so smoothly. When an executor or representative runs into problems, we can help. We handle cases that involve partition, will contests, breach of trust, and other probate difficulties. We also represent people who wish to challenge the validity of a will.
