Find out how we can help you preserve your family business.

Litigation

Sometimes it is necessary for a court to resolve legal issues. When that happens it is important to have an attorney who has both knowledge of elder law and the experience and skill to litigate elder law issues in the courtroom.
Learn more about matters that may require litigation.

Long Term Care

Elder law is another aspect of estate planning, focusing primarily on the needs of families and individuals as they age. Issues of aging include senior housing and home care, long-term (or nursing home) care, guardianships and health care documents, Medicare and Medicaid.
Learn more about planning for long-term care.

Probate & Estate Administration

Probate and estate administration are the processes through which estate assets are transferred after death. Assets to be transferred under terms of a will go through probate. Assets transferred outside of a will, such as by operation of law, or those planned for in a trust are handled through an Administration process. Administration also refers to the process whereby assets are transferred by rules of the state when there is no will. We can help make the process easier, more efficient, and provide peace of mind during a difficult time.
