Estate Planning

No one wants to think about the inevitable, and many people put off planning their estates until it is too late. Failing to plan your estate properly can lead to huge expenses and uncertainties for your loved ones and can even serve to divide your family. Not having something as simple as a power of attorney can lead to thousands of dollars in legal fees and court costs if you become mentally disabled and it becomes necessary to establish a Guardian or Conservator. A proper estate plan includes utilizing powers of attorney, advanced healthcare directives, wills, and various types of trusts to accomplish your desires and to ensure that your hard-earned assets are passed down to the family members and others you want them to go to.

DUI

DUI’s and other alcohol related driving offenses have serious consequences including jail time, heavy fines, loss of a driver’s license, and unaffordable insurance premiums. Oftentimes a DUI conviction can also end up in the loss of a job and future employment opportunities.
Our firm advises anyone charged with a DUI to seek legal advice prior to entering a guilty plea. There are many complicated aspects to DUI cases. Police officers often do not follow procedures or have probable cause to arrest you, and the evidence of your DUI can often be suppressed and may result in a dismissal. Breathalyzer tests are often notoriously inaccurate, and if strict procedures are not followed they can be thrown out for use as evidence. The Police may have failed to read you your rights and anything you told them potentially may not be used against you. You may even be charged with a DUI when you have had some drinks but are not even legally drunk.
