Experienced business people are well acquainted with Murphy's Law: anything that can go wrong will go wrong.
We have always been in the business of getting businesses out of trouble once they are in it, but we prefer to keep them out of trouble in the first place.
That is why we offer planning and consulting services for fixed fees. We want to eliminate any budgetary barrier to having a conversation with us about avoiding trouble, because it is in everyone's best interest to solve problems by avoiding them.
The attorneys in our office can help your company at any stage of its development. We can help you form a company, adapt your company to accommodate growth and changing business conditions, and we can also help with the sale, transfer, or dissolution of your business.
Our typical client has questions and concerns about liability protection, contracts for products and services, and succession planning. We will be happy to host you for a no-obligation conversation to discuss any questions or concerns you may have.
We end our consultation with a quote for a flat fee to do any necessary work.

Probate
The probate process is difficult administratively and emotionally. We recommend that you outsource that difficulty to us, because we help our other clients navigate probate administration every day. Our experience can make probate easy - as easy as anything can be during a difficult time.
If you have probate questions, email or call us. We will be glad to talk you through it.
Trust Administration
Everybody has some gifts they want to give, and beneficiaries to give them to. But many people don't know the best way to get one to the other. That is where trusts can often help.
If you are a trustee and have questions about administering trusts in the best way, or if you need someone to serve as trustee, we can help.
Guardianship and Conservatorship
Sometimes our clients' family members unexpectedly cannot make or communicate financial or healthcare decisions for themselves. When that happens, it is often wise to apply for guardianship or conservatorship.
If you think you or someone you know may need a guardian or conservator, please reach out to us sooner rather than later. We look forward to speaking with you.
