Estate Planning Services

Trusts: Developing a trust can aid you in caring for your family after your passing or in caring for yourself if you become disabled, and offers significant legal and tax benefits. Trusts can also be put in place to support charitable giving.

Wills: Creation of a valid will means that you get to make the decisions about the disbursement of your estate upon your death, and also affords you the ability to plan for the financial and custodial care of any minor children you may have.

Power of attorney: A financial or medical power of attorney allows you to appoint a person who will have the authority to make decisions about your healthcare and your assets if you become incapacitated.

Healthcare directives and living wills: By putting a healthcare directive in place, you make your wishes known about difficult decisions, such as resuscitation or mechanical breathing, at a time when you are unable to speak for yourself.

Probate administration: We help families who are going through the challenging process of probating an estate. We work to simplify the process, making it expeditious and affordable for you.

Probate litigation: We represent personal representatives who are facing will contests while attempting to administer an estate.

Additional Areas of Practice

Our business law practice consists of the creation of small businesses, and representation in their ongoing legal needs. This can include drafting and filing secretary of state documents as well as internal or administrative documents and contracts such as shareholder agreements or stock ledgers and corporate minutes.

We also help in the creation of family businesses as a part of estate planning. These businesses include family partnerships, LLCs and closely held corporations.

We represent commercial and residential buyers and sellers of real estate.
