Estate Planning and Probate - Our firm handles Estate Administration matters relating to the distribution of an individual's property at his or her death, taking into account wills, taxes, insurance, property, and trusts so as to gain maximum benefit of all laws and, at the same time, complying with the deceased's wishes.

Our firm assists our clients in corporate organization and business planning to elect the entity most suited to the client's needs, such as a closely held business, limited liability company, partnership or corporation. We advise our clients about directors' and officers' liability, dissolution, franchising, reorganization, trade association membership and activity, joint ventures, mergers, acquisitions, divestitures, business successions, and shareholders' rights. We have experience in handling both transactional and litigation matters.
