Wills and Power of Attorney
Everyone should have at least basic estate planning in place which lets your loved ones know your decisions regarding finances, property, healthcare decisions, and disposition of your assets.
A financial power of attorney allows your named agent to sign legal documents, pay bills, and take other actions on your behalf. A healthcare power of attorney will give your agent the authority to make healthcare decisions for you when you are unable to make them yourself.
All Powers of Attorney end at your death. A Will allows you to designate who will receive your property after you die; who will raise your children if you die while they are still minors; and who will serve as your representative to carry out your wishes after death.

Probate
Probate is the process completed when a decedent leaves assets to distribute, such as bank accounts, real estate, and financial investments.
Probate is the general administration of a deceased person’s will or the estate of a deceased person without a will.
Business Law
Business law refers to the laws that govern the dealings between people and commercial matters.
There are two distinct areas of business law; regulation of commercial entities through laws of partnership, company, bankruptcy, and agency and the second is regulation of the commercial transactions through the laws of contract.
A lot of business law involves trying to prevent problems that can hurt the business or cause legal disputes.

We can assist with anything from a lease agreement to a purchasing agreement to an agreement with a third-party vendor to sell a product.

There are different types of business entities and we help decision makers weigh the pros and cons of each entity when they’re starting a business.
We can educate the business founders in the law in order to help them choose the entity that’s in their best interests. Then, we file the paperwork to formally start the business.

These legal contracts prevent an employee from entering into or starting a similar profession or trade which directly competes with the employer.
