Areas of Practice

Because my firm is small and my practice concentrated in the following areas, my clients benefit by getting personalized, quality service that is beyond comparison.

BUSINESS:

Having created, run and sold two successful small businesses and now being the sole proprietor of this business, I have quite a bit of first hand experience.  From premises site acquisition, lease review, financing, regulatory approvals and compliance, vendor contracts, and employee relations through dissolution of corporations and sale of the business I can help you create, build, improve or sell your business. 

REAL ESTATE:

Having now done over a thousand real estate closings it is safe to say I know the ins and outs of transactions.  From contract negotiations, arranging financing, consultation during inspections and through the closing, I will provide calm, expert guidance and help you enjoy a smooth easy closing.  I understand that real estate transactions can involve enough stress without a lawyer fanning the flames or complicating matters.  Let me help you with your closing and you'll see why so many of my clients are pleasantly surprised when it's over at how easy it was.

ESTATE PLANNING:

When it comes to estate planning and administration, nobody really likes to think about these things very much.  However, nobody wants to leave these important items unattended to either.  Without a will (and maybe a Trust), living will and durable power of attorney, upon your death or disability you have no control over what happens to your body or the things you have worked so hard to build for future generations.  I do a lot of "simple wills"; meaning that, though critically important upon your death, it is not a complex document that you should have any reason to avoid getting.  Again, through many years of listening to peoples' fears, concerns and bad experiences, I am sensitive to the need to confront these things, at least briefly, to get your affairs in order.  Then you can cross that item off the list for a couple of years and not have that nagging worry hanging over you. 

ESTATE ADMINISTRATION (Probate):

Estate administration is another thing people dread and sometimes get over their heads trying to do themselves.  When a family member or friend dies there is enough agony without the probate process needing to consume any more of your mental energy than necessary.  Let me help you get through the process as quickly and painlessly as possible. 

OTHER:

While my practice is limited to the areas briefly outlined above, I find that there is so much more to each of those areas than can be briefly described here.  I encourage all reasonable inquiries on any potentially related topic; and even for those clearly not within my realm.  If I can't help you I will tell you up front and help you with referrals to like minded attorneys who will respect you and your issue.
