Trusts and Estates

• Estate Planning
  You don’t need extreme wealth to benefit from good Estate Planning; Nor are Wills and Trusts only for the elderly. Unfortunately we never know what might happen tomorrow. As such, it is never too soon to plan for what will happen when you are gone. Are your children protected? Are your loved ones protected? Estate planning doesn’t just deal with who you leave your financial and property to, nor is it written to work for today only. Finally, your estate planning might not include a Will or Trust at all, but shouldn’t you know what will happen when you pass? Are the statutory provisions sufficient enough to provide results that you seek? That is why we suggest that you seek the advice of an experienced attorney to assist you in your planning for the future.
• Wills
  You should further protect yourself should you become incapacitated. From power of attorney, to living wills, these are typical documents that are drafted at the last minute, or sometimes it’s too late. Don’t strain yourself. Make sure that you are the one that decides who controls your future.

Finance Law

• Foreclosure
  When the market began to slow, we were at the forefront of the industry in successfully resolving our first short sale in Wrightsville Beach in the winter of 2006. When many firms began working in the area of distressed properties, in 2008-2009, we had already successfully resolved numerous claims. We continue to stay a step ahead of the market in defending foreclosures and deficiency claims in creative ways. Our straight forward approach to resolving claims simplifies the litigation and keeps the cost within reasonable limits for our clients. We do not demand large nonrefundable retainers and instead bill clients at our normal hourly rate for distressed property claims. We are in the courts on a regular basis and provide local knowledge and experience to resolving your claim. We further bring a realistic perspective to a stressful situation, while still providing practical solutions.
