We want our clients' families and businesses to develop like Redwood trees ...

The family / business structures are very important to us. In our law practice we have identified the "family / business dynasty" as the ideal survival unit. If every family in the United States strives to be harmonious, secure and successful through many generations, then our country shall have a stable, prosperous continuum. We want all families to be like Redwood trees living through many generations with forever new growth and thick bark -- not like a bunch of daisies which bloom for a short time and then fade away and perhaps a seed or two, if you're lucky, will bloom in the next generation.

Let us Strive Towards Having a Nationwide Forest of "Family / Business Redwood Trees".

• Estate Planning & Asset Protection
  We structure estates with few or millions of dollars worth of assets with combinations of protective assets - each with a master plan reflected on a legal architectural blueprint.
• Probate & After-Death Administration
  Probate is proving a deceased person has a will and it is valid according to the state of the deceased. If a citizen dies without a will or one that isn't validated by the court, then the deceased's assets and liabilities are distributed by that state court. This can be costly and time consuming. Most of our clients will have trusts and other protective documents which eliminate probate and most, if not all, of the probate taxes.
• Business Planning and Maneuvers
  Do you need to establish a corporation for your business, have you considered a limited liability company or do you prefer a sole proprietorship? We will help you choose the right structure for your company and work with you to maintain it in optimum condition.
