Estate Planning and Probate

Our elder law and estate planning practices cover the initial creation of an estate plan all the way through probate and estate administration. Estate plans should minimize the costs and time associated with probate, and allow your estate to be resolved privately and confidentially. While it is nearly impossible to avoid probate completely, it is certainly possible, with the help of a skilled attorney, to reduce your tax liability and increase the control you have over your estate. Here are some of the elder law and estate planning tools that we use:

• Trusts
• Wills
• Special Needs Trusts
• Living Trusts
• Living Wills

Residential Real Estate Closings

As one of the most important real estate transactions you will deal with, it is important to hire an experienced real estate attorney. Residential real estate closings involve a multitude of steps. We draft and review purchase and sale agreements, and will advise you about any potential obstacles you encounter. You never know what may arise during a closing, so protect yourself by consulting us.

Car Accidents and Personal Injury Claims

The consequences of a car accident can have a profound impact on the lives of you and your family. Not only must you cope with the physical pain, but you must also deal with legal and financial complications. We will counsel you about the insurance claims process and represent you in disputes with insurance companies.
