Clear counsel for the moments that matter
A small firm for businesses, families and individuals. We tell you where you stand, what it will cost, and what we would do in your place.
- Clarity
- Discretion
- Resolve
A small firm, by design. Every matter has a partner’s name on it.
We keep our client list short so that the attorney you meet is the one who reads every document, takes every call, and stands up in court if it comes to that.
About the firm
Practice areas
Six areas of law, practised deeply rather than widely. If your matter falls outside them, we will tell you — and point you to someone we trust.
All practice areas- Business & contracts Formation, shareholder agreements, and the contracts a growing company signs every week.
- Employment Advice for employers and employees on hiring, policies, disputes and departures.
- Real estate Residential and commercial transactions, closings, title issues and landlord–tenant disputes.
- Estate planning & probate Wills, trusts and powers of attorney — and a steady hand through probate.
- Family law Divorce, custody and support, handled with discretion and an eye on what comes after.
- Civil litigation When a dispute can’t be settled, we take it to court — prepared.
