Dispute Resolution

You can depend on us to exercise keen judgment, get to the heart of the matter, and set out a strategy to minimize the intrusive impact of any dispute in your life. We are astute problem solvers with years of experience before all levels of court and at mediation, involving all manner of personal and business- related disputes. Conflict can have a positive outcome—some disputes should not be litigated and can be successfully resolved through mediation and other alternatives. Regardless of the method, we will help lift the problem from your shoulders.

Our support embraces all areas of business planning, succession planning, estate planning and family law, plus their interrelated disputes and litigation. We specialize in matters of significant assets, complex property protection, and interests in family businesses.
