Attending to Your Real Estate Needs 

     In the Commercial Real Estate area, as a prospective tenant, we can review your commercial lease, and make you aware of what you are getting into.  On the landlord side, we also draft leases and other tenant agreements.  We also have extensive experience at planning and implementation of large mixed-use developments, including retail, office, hotel, and residential condominium projects.

Our Corporate Lawyers Mean Business

     In the Corporate and Business area, our four transactional attorneys handle everything from basic incorporations and LLC formations, to complex merger and acquisition work.   We draft and review franchise agreements.  In matters of labor and employment, we advise employers of the rules and regulations. We can act as general counsel for small businesses, and either outside counsel or local counsel for larger ones. We have particular expertise working with dentists and doctors, who  face much greater upfitting costs than typical business tenants or owners. Please click on our Dental Professionals tab on the left for more information.

We Have a Plan for You

     In the Will and Estate Planning area, we draft everything from simple wills to complex trusts, powers of attorney, living wills, health care powers of attorney, credit shelter trusts, probate avoidance trusts, medicaid trusts, family limited partnerships, gifting plans, and virtually all of the other estate planning documents.  Most importantly, we want to tailor your estate plan to your particular needs.  Our philosophy is to keep your will or estate plan as simple as possible, while accomplishing all of your goals.  For all of our will and estate planning documents, we charge fixed fees based upon the documents we actually prepare- there is no "guessing" what the fee will be.   When someone has passed on, we are able to handle the burden of probate and estate and trust administration, to answer all of your questions and make sure things are handled properly.
