Planning for Later

Let’s face it, no one enjoys planning for their own disability or death, or moving on after a loved one has passed. We pride ourselves on being careful, caring listeners who will take the time to discuss available options. When it comes to planning or administering estates, one size definitely does not fit all.

Other pages on this site will tell you more details about Chris and what he does. Chris's practice has revolved primarily around the areas of business, employment, real estate, estate planning, probate, and municipal law. The majority of his practice has been transactional – he helps people negotiate, review and draft documents, and generally get things done. He has also represented clients in many lawsuits that relate to these areas of practice. Many attorneys restrict their practice to either transactional or litigation work.
