Your Business Deserves a Solid Legal Foundation
You want to remain focused on growing your business and serving your customers, not getting mired in reacting to legal issues that are costing you valuable time and money. Your business deserves a trusted legal advisor and problem solver who proactively identifies missed opportunities, spots potential risks and creates plans to mitigate liability and leverage opportunities. Your lawyer needs to explain issues in plain English (and not in lawyer-speak) to help you avoid legal, insurance, financial and tax mistakes. We get it! Further, we have extensive franchise law experience for emerging/established franchisors and franchisees.
Our Estate Plans Help You Prepare for Life
While most people know the importance of having a well-rounded estate plan, it is typically considered useful only after they have passed. This is understandable because the traditional estate planning model was designed to serve those nearing the end of life. But there are many ways in which a comprehensive estate plan can have a positive impact during your life. Our Estate Plans focus on serving the needs of growing families and those in transition. We know that you are busy and don't want to be overwhelmed with legalities, but you want to ensure your family's security. We help you pass on your legacy, which encompasses more than just your financial assets, but also your values, insights, stories, and wisdom. Our Estate Planning Process is designed to support you.

Do you know that an estate plan already exists for you? Unless you design your own plan, the state you live in has a default plan that will determine how everything you own will be distributed - from your car to your home to bank and investment accounts.
From potential temporary or permanent foster care for your children to courtroom battles over who should raise your children, to estate/transfer taxes, frozen assets and blocked accounts for minors, no one would voluntarily choose the state plan for their loved ones. Don't let the state decide such critical decisions for you. You want to give what you want, how you want and to whom you want.
Let us help your family create a plan that protects your assets and loved ones exactly the way you want. Estate planning is not just for a certain group of people - it's for everyone! To learn more about some of the issues that an effective legal life plan should navigate, please click below.

As a mother of the two adorable daughters you see in this picture, I know how important it is to protect your family. We plan for your family as we do for our own.
Many parents have considered who they would designate as a long-term guardian for their children in the event of death. Some have even memorialized formal guardianship contingencies in estate planning documents. Others have thought about it but haven't documented it for a variety of reasons, including the parents are not in agreement or are paralyzed by fear and indecision. We can assist you with this critical decision that helps you capture the necessary guidance and instructions that you would want followed. These issues may include: religious/moral instruction and education guidance as well as your own specific priorities for your child's well-being such as whether you would want to emphasize athletics or art or altruistic endeavors.
