Firm Overview

For more than 30 years, our lawyers have been proudly serving the legal needs of individuals, families and businesses throughout the region.
Today, our firm provides services for individuals and businesses with a myriad of different, but often interrelated legal needs. Our focus includes real property transactions, zoning and real property development concerns, business formation and general business law matters, estate planning, probate administration, family law and divorce. We represent clients on all sides of these issues in litigation and mediation.

More than anything else, our lawyers pride themselves on practicing law the right way.

Where many law firms boast about the experience they have at trial, how willing they are to litigate and how aggressive they are in court, we apply this same level of expertise and aggressive representation outside the court room, because we appreciate the reality that if a client's situation reaches the court room, control of the outcome is removed from the client and rests with the judge and/or jury. While we know this is unavoidable in some cases, we also realize that mediation and negotiation of disputes often can prevent costly, unpleasant and time consuming litigation.

We show respect for our clients' needs by providing the type of legal advice, service and representation that is intended to decrease the likelihood of litigation. This approach is more cost-effective and it allows you to retain some measure of control over the outcome.
Lastly, while we do not rush blindly to the courthouse doors when there are ways to avoid it our attorneys are experienced and fully capable of representing and protecting your interests in court.

Real Estate Closing Services
Whether you are a lender, an agent, a broker, a seller or a buyer real estate closings are more than just a perfunctory task. They are critically important and they demand attention to detail.

Every closing we do is managed by an attorney and except in rare and unusual circumstances is attended by and attorney. We conduct closings at our office, however, we are available and routinely travel to conduct them elsewhere as well.
