Areas of Practice
Family Law
Disputes within a family can be very difficult. I assist pro-se parties (individuals without legal representation) by volunteering at the Missoula Self-help law center in Missoula, Montana. I can advise and guide you in achieving the most sensible peaceful outcome. Providing a positive and calm conclusion for all the parties involved is the ultimate purpose of my service.
Business COUNSEL & Employment law
When formulating a business, such as a gas station, bicycle shop, wholesale distribution or an e-commerce store, I can assist in structuring your business (as either a partnership, a corporation, or a limited liability company) and help you create a plan based on your goals. By complying with the laws and regulations, we can work together to find the best solution to grow your business. Ultimately, my legal service will allow you peace of mind that your objectives will be achieved.
Estate Planning
Preparing on how to manage your assets in the event of death or incapacitation can be a discomforting reality. Without an appropriate estate plan, friends and relatives can spend a lifetime (and their life savings) battling over your assets. It can be intimidating, but with an appropriate estate plan tailored to your needs, I can ensure that your assets will be distributed to your desired heirs without the interference of the government or third parties. Calming your concern about this delicate topic will be a pledge of my service.
501(c)(3) Non-Profit formation
Promoting a charitable, philanthropic, or humanitarian business to the public is a progressive and constructive endeavor. I want to help you get ready to share it with the world. Assisting you in forming the non-profit and establishing the federal and state tax-exempt status for a public charity, a private foundation or private operating foundation can be accomplished.
Trademark application
Protecting your branding is protecting your business. Guiding you through the process of searching, applying, and the filing procedure of a trademark will be my objective.
