Estate planning requires an in-depth understanding of the client’s assets, liabilities and objectives in order to handle all matters concerned in the appropriate manner. Our experience in this arena has provided us with the clear understanding and knowledge necessary to meet the estate planning objectives of our clients. We also have the requisite drafting skills required to ensure clear and concise directives that satisfy the instructions of our clients in handling matters for lifetime planning.

The loss of a loved one is emotionally overwhelming. Facing the legal proceedings to properly handle the estate can be a daunting task. There are potential creditor claims that must be addressed as well as legally imposed deadlines to be met. We can help with each step of the process to ensure the proper handling of the estate.

The sale or purchase of a home can be a stressful endeavor. It does not have to be with the support of our real estate department. Our services begin with our assistance in drafting or reviewing a contract through the closing of the transaction. We work with you, the other party to the transaction, the realtors, and your banker to move the transaction forward in a timely manner.

We look forward to your call to schedule an appointment to allow us to assist you.
