Firm Overview
Our firm handles legal matters in the following practice areas: General Civil, Domestic and Criminal Practice. Real Estate, Probate and Personal Injury Law. Litigation.

Car and Truck Accidents

While car accidents comprise a significant portion of personal injury and wrongful death claims, it would be wrong to think that they are always simple to resolve. We understand not just the ?rules of the road? and the special duties imposed on semi-tractor trailers and other commercial and public carriers, but also the complex scientific and engineering principles often necessary to unravel just how an accident occurred and who was at fault. We understand the medicine needed to evaluate your injury, as well as the vocational, economic and accounting principles needed to evaluate losses. We handle accident cases involving:

  • Semi-truck and tractor trailer crashes
  • Rear end collisions
  • Intersection accidents
  • Alcohol related crashes
  • Hit and run
  • Passenger injuries
  • Driver injuries
  • Motorcycle accidents
  • Pedestrian accidents
  • Bicycle accidents

Ourknowledge, experience and training in family law are supported by our aggressive and proactive style. We also believe in reasonableness and cooperation, however, and adjust our representation to suit the needs of any particular client. We assist clients in all aspects of the law relating to the needs of today's families, including, but not limited to:

  • Divorce
  • Legal separation
  • Nullity
  • Paternity
  • Domestic Partnerships
  • Child Custody/Visitation (including international and interstate disputes)

  • Non-Marital Cohabitation Agreements

Wills, Trusts, Estates and Probate

We handle a variety of estate planning matters, including planning for the distribution of an individual?s property at his or her death and taking into account wills, taxes, insurance, property, and trusts so as to gain the maximum benefit of all laws, while, at the same time, carrying out the person?s wishes. By way of example, estate planning may include wills, spousal and children?s trusts, insurance trusts, special needs trusts, revocable living trusts, irrevocable trusts, advance medical directives, powers of attorney (general, special and medical), as well as an array of sophisticated planning techniques used to protect assets from unnecessary probate costs and taxation.

In addition to estate planning, we also assist clients with Probate and Estate Administration. Probate is the legal process by which a person?s debts are paid and assets are distributed upon her or his death. Estate Administration includes the probate process as well as non-probate transfers of the deceased?s assets. Individual state laws direct the probate court how to distribute the deceased?s estate. State laws and procedures vary greatly, so, it is important to consult a firm with expertise in this area of the law to ensure that the deceased?s assets are distributed correctly.
