Social Security Disability and Personal Injury
Personal injury laws cover the types of physical and
emotional injuries suffered by a person as a result of the wrongful
conduct of another. The main concerns in a personal injury case revolve
around your lawyer proving liability and damages. Before you can collect
an award, your attorney must prove that the defendant is legally
responsible for your injuries. Once liability is established, the judge or
jury may award you compensation for medical costs, lost wages and lost
future earnings as well as for pain and suffering.
Our firm represents individuals involved in
controversies alleging a wrong or damage to one's person, rights,
reputation, or property resulting from events or activities such as
automobile accidents, defective products, infliction of emotional
distress, intentional misconduct, and negligence.
Real Estate
Our firm represents commercial clients and
individuals in all proceedings and transactions that deal with real
property (land and the structures attached to it) including purchase and
sale, construction, mortgages and foreclosures, leases, zoning, title
examinations, quiet title actions, closings, and management.
Estate Planning and Probate
Estate Planning is any form of
planning for the inevitability of death. It can be as little as obtaining
life insurance to pay for the costs of a funeral and preparing a Last
Will, or be more comprehensive such as a Will, Trust, and related estate
planning documents. Our firm handles Estate Planning matters which
include all areas dealing with the distribution of an individual's
property at his or her death. We take into account wills, taxes,
insurance, property, and trusts so as to gain the maximum benefit of all laws
while carrying out a client's wishes.
Probate is the court proceeding through which a
will is proved to be valid and the estate of a decedent is administered.
The process generally includes collecting a decedent's assets, liquidating
liabilities, paying necessary taxes, and distributing property to heirs.
