Knowledgeable and Flexible Legal Advice

With a wide breadth of legal knowledge and extensive probate litigation and estate planning experience, our attorneys are able to address even the most complex issues relating to the protection of your family's assets, including:

  • Estate planning: Offering comprehensive guidance through drafting and execution of all necessary planning documents, our attorneys work personally with you to create wills; trusts, including special needs trusts, complex trusts and probate-avoidance trusts; health care surrogate agreements; living wills and powers of attorney.
       
  • Interpretation of wills or trusts: The language used in wills and trusts can be complex and difficult to understand. Our experienced attorneys can help interpret the legal meaning behind vague or confusing provisions, including determining the meaning of specific gifts or bequests in a will.
       
  • Probate and trust administration: Our attorneys offer knowledgeable guidance through the probate process from simple administration to probate litigation, including will contests, undue influence claims, improper administration, clearing title to real property and partition actions.
      
  • Asset protection: Our attorneys can advise small business owners on asset structuring to minimize potential claims of judgment creditor.
      
  • Guardianships: Whether contested or not, guardianships can be difficult to establish. We work diligently to establish guardianships for individuals lacking the mental or physical capacity to properly manage assets or make their own medical and health care decisions.
      
  • Litigation: Offering experienced court room representation, we are able to address issues related to breach of fiduciary duty or improper transfer of assets.

We also provide thorough consultations regarding the following issues:

  • Prenuptial and post-nuptial agreements
  • Spousal inheritance rights
