Trust & Estate Attorneys
Whether you only require a will-based plan or can benefit from establishing trusts, a well-conceived estate plan can help to protect your assets, provide for your loved ones, and preserve your legacy.
We believe that estate planning is for everyone, but no two estates are alike. When you consult with us, we will take the time to understand your circumstances and tailor an estate plan to your unique needs. We have extensive experience preparing essential estate planning documents and regularly handle matters such as:
- Trust and estate administration
- Guardianships and conservatorships
- Estate litigation (e.g. will contests)
- Business succession planning
- Wealth preservation
By intervening in the earliest stages of criminal litigation, we work to protect our clients’ rights and achieve the best possible outcome. When you partner with us, we will choose the best line of defense and work to preserve your freedom, your future, and your reputation.
In addition to commercial litigation, we provide aggressive criminal defense strategies to clients against:
- Felonies
- Misdemeanors
- Driving under the influence
- White-collar crimes (e.g. fraud)
- Racketeering (RICO violations)
in Commercial Litigation
Given that a protracted legal battle can be costly and disruptive, we often recommend seeking alternative forms of dispute resolution (e.g. arbitration and mediation), but we know our way around a courtroom.
Businesses and individuals frequently become involved in disputes that rise to the level of litigation. That’s where our firm comes in.
We routinely handle all types of commercial litigation in state and federal court, including:
- Antitrust/unfair competition
- Contract disputes (breach of contract/warranties)
- Fraud
- Tortious interference
- Commercial debt collections
- Shareholder/partnership disputes
- Intellectual property disputes
- Deceptive trade practices
- Employment disputes
