We represent individuals who have been harmed by the negligent or intentionally harmful acts or omissions of others, and help them obtain the compensation they deserve. Examples of negligence include car accidents caused by inattentive or drunk drivers or instances where persons were harmed as a result of a unapparent hazards on property owned by others. When we take your case, you won’t pay anything unless we settle it or win at trial. Consultations for personal injury cases are free.
Family law involves prenuptial and separation agreement drafting, and representing clients in divorce and child custody/visitation cases. I have handled numerous family law matters over the course of my 30-year career, during which I have learned the value of empathy in what can be some of the most difficult times in a client’s life.
My experience representing the Department of Social Services in permanency planning, termination of parental rights and other matters pertaining to children have given me a firm foundation as to how the courts view matters pertaining to children and the way it balances the needs of children against those of their parents.
Many attorneys stress how aggressive they are in their representation of clients in family law matters. I have learned that some cases and circumstances call for a softer approach.
Civil litigation can involve disputes over contract terms, construction litigation, business and partnership disputes, fraud cases, large collection cases, arbitrations, and administrative hearings. Whether your case is simple or complex, I have the skills and judgment to best provide for your needs.
We have conducted a number of tax sales foreclosures over the years. You need experienced counsel to help you navigate this process.
Boundary disputes are cases involving disagreements as to the location of shared property lines, cases involving encroachments of structures from one property onto another, cases involving surveying errors, and disputes regarding the location of easements. It is not uncommon for these cases to involve adverse possession claims. I have experience trying and winning multiday boundary dispute trials.
My practice includes a considerable amount of contract and agreement drafting. Having fixed attempts at drafting legal documents prepared by do-it-yourselfers, I understand the importance of retaining a qualified and competent lawyer to perform your work correctly. We can also help you fix the consequences of improperly prepared documents.
We prepare organizational documents like corporate bylaws, limited liability company operating agreements and buy-sell agreements. I have guided clients from the startup to the sale of their businesses, including doctors’ practices, convenience store/gas stations, insurance agencies and other types of businesses.
From drafting purchase and sale contract, advising buyers and sellers, conducting cash sale closings to drafting easement agreements, we can meet your needs.
