That line under our logo isn't a formality. It's the arrangement.
At a larger firm, the lawyer who takes your call and the lawyer who does the work are often two different people. That is simply how a firm with associates is built, and there is nothing wrong with it.
This is built the other way. Three lawyers, three independent practices, one front door. There is nobody else for the file to go to. You will deal with the person whose name you asked for, from the first call to the last signature — and you'll talk about what it costs before the work starts, not after.
It is a plain arrangement. We think it is the whole point.
What brings people in.
The land
Real estate
Buying, selling, leasing. Title, mortgages, subdivision. Residential and commercial, in town and well out of it.
The business
Corporate
Incorporating, restructuring, shareholder agreements — and winding things up when it's time.
Commercial
Deals between businesses, written down properly, before they go sideways rather than after.
What gets left behind
Wills & estate planning
Deciding who gets what — and making it hold.
Estate administration
Probate and everything after it. We do this part with families, not at them.
When it goes wrong
Litigation
Civil and commercial disputes, contract and property claims, debt recovery. We try the phone call first.
Land, family, and what happens next.
One of you stayed.
Somebody stayed on the place and worked it for twenty years. Somebody else moved to town, and nobody thought that was a problem, because nobody said it out loud. Then the land gets split evenly — and the one who stayed can't afford to buy anyone out.
Families find this out at the worst possible moment. Usually about a week after the funeral.
The land is going to change hands either way. The only question is whether that happens at a kitchen table with everyone in the room, or afterwards, through lawyers who never met your father. It costs far less to have the conversation early. Come and have it.
