Businesses & Corporations

Our offerings in business and corporate law cover the formation and management of business entities, including sole proprietorships, limited liability companies, partnerships, or corporations.  We're also able to advise on creation or dissolvement of businesses, how they relate to estate planning, as well as relationships between your business and third parties, such as customers, employees, vendors, and suppliers. 

Like any plan, an estate plan looks to the future. By laying out this plan, you ensure your property is handled as you like. When you can no longer express your wishes (i.e., when you die or become incapacitated), an estate plan can clearly outline what you would choose. Your family members can have peace of mind knowing that they are honoring your wishes about the distribution of your assets.

An estate plan is your legal voice providing instructions for the future. 

If you are an employer in need of legal assistance, we are able to help defend against termination lawsuits, drafting and implementing handbooks, non-compete agreements, compliance with federal or state employment laws, and more. 

Civil law is intended to address behavior that causes some sort of injury, either to an individual or some other party. This is done through the utilization of lawsuits. When one party to a lawsuit is determined to be liable for these injurious acts, the consequences generally consist of monetary awards or injunctions. 

Probate and estate planning attorneys work in practice areas relating to estate law. But there's one primary difference: timing.

We assist executors and administrators with the handling of estates from the time a person has passed until all estate matters are resolved.  We also advise trustees on how to properly administer the trust and handle trust assets.  

Real estate law is often governed by state regulations and typically divided into two categories:  residential and commercial.  Among other issues, we're able to advise on boundary disputes, easement issues, and title search issues. 

We assist families with planning for their loved ones with special needs. Persons with special needs need specific planning to enable them to remain eligible for benefits, such as Medicaid, disability, and supplemental security income (SSI). Disabilities may include: Downs syndrome (trisomy 21 or chromosome 21 translocation), ALS, dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, cancer, lupus, schizophrenia, major depression, and many others.

We are also able to assist with Special Needs Trusts and personal injury settlements.
