Santa Cruz and Monterey Bay Area Attorneys

Experienced Lawyers Serving the Monterey Bay Area

Business Law • Real Estate • Estate Planning & Probate • Personal Injury

 

When you have legal concerns, you want to know that your lawyer is always ready to help you find solutions that really work for your individual needs. Our law office will be there for you at every stage of the process. We have the resources and experience to expertly address the legal concerns of you, your business, or your family in a number of practice areas.

Providing Solutions for You, Your Business, or Your Family

 

Business and Corporate Law

Providing "in-house counsel" for small businesses in the greater Monterey Bay area, we can help your business with everything from start-up and contracts to labor law and complex risk management. We will listen to your concerns, make sure we understand your goals, and help you map out a plan to get there. We will make sure we understand every aspect of your business to tailor individual guidance to your unique situation. Every effort is made to minimize risks on the front end in order to mitigate the potential for protracted and costly litigation. If litigation proves unavoidable, we will fight to ensure that your rights and interests are vigorously protected.

 

Real Estate

We handle a wide range of real estate transactions for both individuals and businesses, assisting buyers, sellers, and title companies in residential and commercial real estate transactions. Whether you need assistance drafting a deed or require review of a purchase and sale agreement, we can provide the peace of mind that comes from having an experienced attorney aid you in confidently reaching your objectives. We also handle real estate conflicts and litigation, including land use and landlord-tenant disputes.

 

Estate Planning and Probate Administration

It is always a sound idea to have a plan to protect your wishes and the needs of your family so that nothing is left to chance. If you are ready to develop an estate plan tailored to the particular needs of you and your family, we can help you. From simple wills to complex estate plans including powers of attorney, living wills and trusts, we will help to explore all of your options to arrive at the plan that makes sense for you. We also handle probate administration.

 

Personal Injury

Unfortunately, no actions or words can undo the injury that you or a loved one has suffered. While we cannot undo the damage of a serious accident or injury, we can help you achieve the justice and compensation that you rightly deserve. Whether you have been injured in a car accident, lost a loved one as the result of medical malpractice, or otherwise suffered serious wrongful harm, we are here to help you throughout this difficult time. Generally, personal injury cases are handled on a contingency basis, meaning there is no cost to the client unless we recover money for you via settlement, trial, or Alternative Dispute Resolution.
