Family Law

Divorce
Premarital Agreement
Prenuptial and Postnuptial Agreements can be a powerful estate planning tool. Our attorneys work with clients to formulate prenuptial agreements to address the disposition of assets and protect specific assets in the unfortunate event that a marriage ends in divorce. We also work with clients who are married but wish to implement an agreement with their spouse regarding how specific assets will be treated in the event of death or divorce.
Guardianship
Our attorneys have experience working with clients to secure guardianships and conservatorships for both elderly individuals and younger individuals with special needs. We assist clients with navigating both the court system and the medical system with respect to the documentation that is required to obtain a guardianship, conservatorship or both over an incapacitated person. We also assist clients with the annual filings that are required by the court.

Estate planning also frequently involves our clients’ business planning concerns. In this context, our attorneys work closely with the attorneys in our Business Law practice and the clients’ other professional advisors. Such business planning may require coordinating the estate planning of two or more generations while at the same time minimizing tax burdens to ensure that the family business will continue to thrive. Often, planning must be coordinated for several business participants to ensure that all expectations are met in the event of a death, disability, or the possible future dissolution of a business entity.
