Common Questions, Clear Answers

Find Helpful Information About Our Services and Process
  • I Was Arrested for a DUI/DWI, What Now?
    No two cases are the same.  This requires you to consult with an attorney to inform him/her of the facts of your case.  Only then can an attorney properly create a plan of action to raise the defenses to your charges.  It is crucial that at this point, the client is open and transparent with their attorney, leaving no important fact untold.
  • What Are the First Legal Steps I Should Take After My Father’s Passing?
    Firstly, locate the will, if one exists. Obtain multiple copies of the death certificate, which will be needed for various administrative purposes. If your father had an estate plan, contact the attorney who helped prepare it. If not, consider consulting with an estate attorney to guide you through the probate process.
  • Is Going Through a Divorce Expensive?
    The answer to this question varies based on the cooperation between the two spouses. Generally, the shorter the duration of the divorce, the less expensive it will be. The reason behind this is that when divorce proceedings are shorter in length, the soon to be ex-spouses are in agreement over the major issues. If parties are contesting fundamental issues, such as child custody and support or maintenance, litigation may become necessary.
