PROBATE & PROBATE LITIGATION

Probate is the legal process through which a deceased person's estate is properly administered and distributed.


Probate litigation occurs when legal disputes arise during the probate process. These disputes often require formal court proceedings to resolve.

Will Contests
Breach of Fiduciary Duty Claims
Contested Accountings
Guardianship Disputes
Trust Disputes
Inheritance Disputes

Probate litigation often involves complex family dynamics and can be emotionally charged, as it typically arises during an already difficult time following the loss of a loved one. Having an attorney with experience in accounting and probate law with litigation skills is particularly valuable in these cases.

BUSINESS LITIGATION

Business litigation  refers to the process of resolving legal disputes that arise in commercial and business contexts through the court system. It involves one business suing another business, or disputes between businesses and individuals, or other organizations. These legal conflicts typically stem from commercial transactions or business relationships.

Contract Disputes
Business Torts
Corporate and Shareholder Disputes

Business litigation requires legal knowledge of both substantive business law and procedural litigation rules. These cases often involve complex financial transactions, and detailed analysis of business operations and practices.

ESTATE PLANNING

Estate planning is a comprehensive process that involves organizing your assets and affairs to ensure they are managed and distributed according to your wishes during your lifetime and after your death. Estate planning is curated to your specific needs, concerns and wishes. It goes beyond simply writing a will and encompasses various legal strategies and documents to protect your assets, minimize taxes, and provide for your loved ones. Estate planning documents also reduce an elderly person’s risk of financial abuse. These documents can provide family members and Courts a clear understanding of a person’s wishes before the person became incapacitated.

Wills and Trusts
Powers of Attorney
Healthcare Directives
Business Succession Planning
Tax Planning Strategies
Asset Protection

Estate planning is highly personalized to individual circumstances and should be reviewed periodically as life changes occur, such as marriages, divorces, births, deaths, relocations to different states, or significant changes in financial status.

FORENSIC ACCOUNTING

Forensic accounting is a specialized field that combines accounting, auditing, and investigative skills to examine financial records and transactions for potential irregularities, fraud, or legal disputes. Forensic accountants examine and interpret financial evidence, often working in situations where litigation is anticipated or underway.
