Case Study

I assisted a business owner with selecting and forming the appropriate legal entity for their business.  Through more in-depth discussion of the client’s business, life and goals, I identified potential issues with respect to their growth, planning, and succession that could impact them long-term. I provided strategic legal advice and drafted the necessary documentation to move them towards their goals, address and minimize potential liability and assisted them in formulating a transition/exit plan.

Estates and Trusts

  • Wills
  • Power of Attorney
  • Health Care Directives
  • Trusts
  • Probate

Case Study

I worked closely with a married couple to draft and execute an estate plan that ensured their assets would transfer to their loved ones, family, and charitable organizations.  My approach was to first understand their financial picture and family situation, then educate them about the basics of estate planning and how the documents worked, thereafter I put together a plan for them to review and modify before signing, and lastly follow up with them to ensure their estate plan coordinated with their financial accounts and matched their wishes.  

Real Estate

  • Commercial and Residential Landlord/Tenant Law
  • Commercial and Residential Leases
  • Real Estate Transactions and Title
  • Real Estate Purchase Agreements

Case Study

I assisted a commercial landlord with reviewing and analyzing a lease that was in breach by a tenant.  I successfully evicted the tenant from the premises, then negotiated and drafted an exit plan to protect the landlord’s rights and financial interest while the tenant was winding up its affairs to move out.  I then took legal action against the tenant for breach of lease and won a judgment in favor of the landlord for damages.

Litigation

Asset 2
  • Breach of contract
  • Contract disputes
  • Shareholder, partnership, and closely-held business disputes
  • Landlord/Tenant disputes
  • Creditors rights

Case Study

I assisted a client to smoothly transition from a business purchase that did not work out. Part of the reason was neither party beforehand had consulted an attorney to draft the sale documents. They reduced their “hand-shake’ deal to a 1-page document that had various contingencies fraught with poorly drafted provisions which made it challenging to satisfy despite efforts on both sides to meet them. After some focused litigation, we reached a resolution through a settlement that avoided further unnecessary litigation, additional attorneys’ fees, and costs and buying a business that the client no longer wanted anymore.
