Legal Services

One of the most important legal documents everyone will need is a Will. Whether you have a simple estate, or one which requires complex estate planning, I can assist you with the orderly transfer of your estate and the protection of your loved ones.

In addition, everyone without exception needs to prepare for the possibility of becoming disabled and unable to care for themselves. Proper and thoughtful planning can prevent the need for expensive guardianship proceedings in case you are disabled. This can be easily done through the preparation of disability planning documents including trusts, health care directives, and powers of attorney. I have practiced in this area since 1990 and am here to assist you with your estate planning. If you have a child or family member who is disabled and receives government benefits, I can assist with a holistic plan to help provide for them when you are not able to do so, including the preparation of Special Needs Trusts. I can also assist married couples who might need to qualify for Medicaid and other government benefits in the future. Careful planning now can make future problems much more manageable.

If a parent, spouse, or loved one has passed away, with or without a will, there are legal consequences that must be taken care of, and deadlines which must be met. Make sure you know what the law requires of you when a family member passes on.

Owning a small to medium sized business comes with many responsibilities. I offer expertise, counsel and advocacy in formation and operation of all types of businesses, including corporations, limited liability companies, partnerships/joint ventures and sole proprietorships. I prepare and review contracts for all business matters, the sale or purchase of businesses, goods or real estate, employment and independent contractor matters, no-compete agreements, leases and agreements.

If you are selling your business, I can assist with this as well with turn key service.
