Elder Law
Elder law attorneys use a holistic approach to handle the legal needs of older adults and their families. Our work can include general estate planning and administration, planning for long term care or incapacity, protection against elder abuse, and navigating the complex world of probate. Additionally we can assist you with trust planning and administration, preparation of wills, and guardianship. Our central focus is always to ensure that the client is protected and is able to maintain the maximum degree of autonomy and independence, while achieving the highest possible quality of life.
Mediation
Mediation is a voluntary method of dispute resolution that allows parties to craft their own solution to a dispute. A neutral third party (the mediator) assists the parties in identifying the issues, generating and evaluating options, and creating an agreeable solution. Mediators never impose decisions on the parties, but encourage the parties to find common ground and resolve the dispute on their own terms.
