Practice Areas

Business and Commercial Law
Business law and commercial law are two areas of legal practice that have so many overlapping issues that most attorneys who practice one will also have expertise in the other. Commercial law focuses on the sale and distribution of goods, as well as financing of certain transactions. Business law focuses on the other aspects of business, including forming a company, mergers and acquisitions, shareholder rights, and property issues such as leasing office or warehouse space.
Reorganization, Bankruptcy, Debtor-Creditor Matters
Bankruptcy is a legal procedure initiated by an individual or a business that cannot pay their debts and seeks to have the debts discharged or reorganized by the courts. The three most common types of bankruptcy proceedings are Chapter 7 individual petitions, Chapter 11 business reorganization and rehabilitation petitions, and Chapter 13 wage earner’s plans.
Real Estate, including Finance and Brokerage
The legal definition of real estate or real property is land and the buildings on it. Real estate law governs who may own and use the land. This simple concept includes a wide range of different legal disciplines. Land can be bought or sold, and due to its high value, there are many local laws that ensure real estate transactions are properly performed and recorded.
Trial and Appellate Litigation in these Areas
Litigation is the process of going to court to argue your case. The case could be criminal, in which the state argues that a citizen violated the law, or civil, in which two citizens or businesses argue against each other. Within each of these categories there are several other smaller courts. For example, criminal cases about traffic violations or youthful offenders have their own courts, and civil cases relating to housing, family, and bankruptcy often have their own courts.
