Asset Protection
Asset protection planning involves techniques which have the effect of placing assets beyond the reach of unknown future creditors to the extent legally and ethically possible. Legitimate asset protection planning does not involve hiding assets, using secret agreements or making fraudulent transfers. Neither does it involve tax evasion or, necessarily, tax avoidance, although some asset protection plans can be combined with estate and gift tax planning to produce favorable tax results. Asset protection planning combines sophisticated and legitimate business planning and estate planning techniques.

Probate & Estate Administration
We handle all aspects of Probate and Estate Administration for estates. Probate is the legal process by which a person's will is allowed by the Probate Court. The provisions of the will dictate how the individual's debts are paid and assets are distributed upon death. Estate Administration includes the probate process as well as non-probate transfers of the deceased's assets, such as life insurance, annuities, qualified plans, and trust assets and compliance with applicable estate tax requirements. We assist the personal representative of the estate in the gathering, valuation, accounting and distribution of the decedent's assets. We prepare federal and state estate tax returns as well as the appropriate documents in order to release liens on a decedent's real estate. It is our responsibility to assure that all steps are properly taken in order to carry out the decedent's intent in accordance with the law.

Guardianship
When a person cannot properly manage property or take care of himself or herself, someone must assume responsibility for that person's affairs. If no one has legal authority to act, a court appointed guardian is required. A guardian of the “person” makes decisions about the ward’s care and living arrangements. A guardian of the “estate” handles the ward’s financial affairs. The same person can be appointed in both capacities.

Business and Commercial Law
We provide a wide variety of services to our business clients from assisting in selecting the type of organizational entity under which to operate, preparation of agreements, sale and purchase of businesses, obtaining financing and funding for business operations, and employee relations, to dissolution.

Business Organizations
The form of business chosen for a business entity potentially affects every aspect of its operations. Our firm assists our clients in formation and business planning in deciding whether they want to operate as a closely held business, limited liability company, partnership, or corporation. We advise our clients about directors' and officers' liability, dissolution, franchising, reorganization, trade association membership and activity, joint ventures, mergers, acquisitions, divestitures, business successions, and shareholders' rights. Our attorneys have years of experience in handling both transactional and litigation matters. We will make sure the work is done thoroughly and correctly. We welcome clients from out of state who want to establish organizations in Nevada.
