Firm Information

Overview

Our firm believes in a preventive approach to the law. As a result, we identify steps clients can take now to prevent other legal problems from arising in the future. Our lawyers review real estate contracts, estate plans, and evidence in criminal cases in order to identify vulnerabilities and exposure to liability that can lead to further legal complications. Working with investigators, accountants, forensic specialists, even medical professionals when needed, we bring a level of outside expertise to the development of our clients' cases that today's sophisticated legal world demands.

Since our firm's inception, we have provided our clients with result-driven services in real estate law, criminal defense, and estate planning and administration. With our services, individuals, families and businesses have successfully protected and defended their reputations, assets, investments, and their futures.

Our Commitment to Our Clients

Most people who contact us have never hired an attorney before nor had a legal issue they needed resolved. As a result, there is often a great deal of confusion and apprehension about what is involved, especially when a great deal of money is at stake or a person's freedom is on the line. We work closely with all of our clients, keeping them informed at all stages of their case. Our attorneys evaluate the available options in order to provide you with the optimal amount of information needed to make informed decisions about your case.

How do I choose a lawyer?

Consider the following:

  • Comfort Level – Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
  • Credentials – How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
  • Cost – How are the lawyer's fees structured — hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
  • City – Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?

Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?

Here are a few to get you started:

  • How long have you been in practice?
  • How many cases like mine have you handled?
  • How often do you settle cases out of court?
  • What are your fees and costs?
  • What are the next steps?

Want to check lawyer discipline?

It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:

  • Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
  • Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
  • Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
