Family Law

• Guardianship
  Unfortunately, you would be subject to “living probate,†also known as a conservatorship or guardianship proceeding. If you become mentally disabled before you die, the probate court will appoint someone to take control of your assets and personal affairs. These “court-appointed agents†must file a strict accounting of your finances with the court. The process is often expensive, time-consuming and humiliating.
• Child Abuse
  As legal professionals, we are required by law to make disclosures of private information where we have knowledge of elder or child abuse, or of the intent to commit a crime.
