Family Law: One of the primary focus areas of our firm, our attorneys work with individuals to resolve the many legal issues that arise in family-related situations.  This includes everything from helping resolve disputes between family members, such as in the case of a divorce, to supporting couples with the necessary paperwork to adopt a child (in certain situations).  Being a very sensitive and often emotionally charged area of the law, our attorneys work with dedication and compassion to resolve your legal issues with the least possible impact on everyone involved.

Estate Planning & Administration:  Our attorneys also work with clients to develop a plan and prepare the proper documents to protect their families and their wealth in the event they die or become seriously injured, including Last Will and Testaments, Powers of Attorney, and Trusts. We also work with clients to aid with the transfer and succession of their businesses at death.

When family members die, the estate administration and probate process can be a confusing and time consuming process.  Our attorneys support clients in this area by handling the majority of the filing and paperwork for the probate process, working with creditors of the estate, and making certain that the property of the estate is properly divided between the beneficiaries.  We also represent individuals in cases where a family member's Last Will & Testament or other estate planning documents are being contested due to possible fraud, undue influence, or other problems with the documents.

Additionally, in the case of clients who have children or family members with special needs, our attorneys work with clients and their family members to help secure the long-term financial security of these individuals and ensure that their eligibility for governmental benefits are preserved.
