Practice Areas

Estate Planning

Estate planning legal services assist individuals in preparing for the management and distribution of their assets after death. These services typically include drafting wills, trusts, and powers of attorney, as well as developing healthcare directives. Estate planning attorneys help clients understand tax implications, ensure their wishes are clearly documented, and provide guidance on probate processes. The goal is to minimize disputes among heirs, reduce estate taxes, and protect the client’s legacy while ensuring that their financial and healthcare decisions are honored. 

Probate

​Probate legal services assist families and executors in navigating the legal process of administering a deceased person's estate. This includes validating the will, managing estate assets, settling debts, and distributing property to beneficiaries.

Elder Law

These services typically include assistance with guardianships/conservatorships, long-term care planning, Medicaid and Medicare issues, and elder abuse advocacy. Elder law aims to provide guidance on health care decisions and financial management, aiming to enhance the quality of life for seniors while safeguarding their assets and interests.

Asset Protection

Asset protection legal services help individuals and businesses safeguard their wealth from potential creditors, lawsuits, and other financial risks.  Attorneys also provide guidance on strategic planning to minimize exposure to claims, including insurance advice and estate planning. The goal is to create a comprehensive strategy that preserves and protects assets while ensuring compliance with relevant laws.
