Services
Estate Planning
Our estate planning services help clients create wills, trusts, and advanced directives to ensure asset distribution according to their wishes. We specialize in minimizing probate costs while protecting family interests through durable powers of attorney and healthcare directives. With experience handling complex estates involving real estate and business ownership, we provide tailored solutions that adapt to changing family dynamics and legal requirements.
Construction Law
We represent contractors, subcontractors, and property owners in construction-related legal matters including mechanics liens, contract disputes, and defect claims. Our services cover demand letter preparation, lien filings, and litigation to recover unpaid invoices while ensuring compliance with state-specific deadlines. We also assist with contract drafting and negotiation to prevent future disputes in residential and commercial construction projects.
Business Representation
From formation to dissolution, we support small businesses with entity selection, contract drafting, and dispute resolution. Our services include LLC and corporation formation, business purchase/sale transactions, and contract enforcement. We help clients navigate state-specific regulations while protecting their interests in commercial litigation and debt collection matters across multiple industries.
Probate Administration
We guide personal representatives through estate administration, handling will probate, asset distribution, and creditor claims. Our process streamlines court requirements while minimizing delays and costs. We assist with both simple and complex estates, including those involving out-of-state properties or business interests, ensuring compliance with Alabama, Florida, and Louisiana probate laws.
Contract Litigation
Our contract litigation practice focuses on enforcing agreements and resolving disputes for small businesses. We handle breach of contract cases, demand letter campaigns, and collection matters involving oral and written agreements. With experience representing clients against multinational corporations, we combine aggressive advocacy with practical solutions to protect business interests in state and federal courts.

Questions
What estate planning documents do I really need?
Every adult should have a will, durable power of attorney, and healthcare directive. Trusts may help avoid probate for real estate owners or those with minor children.
How can construction businesses ensure payment for services?
We help contractors file mechanics liens within strict deadlines and prepare demand letters to recover unpaid invoices while preserving legal rights.
Do I need an attorney to form an LLC?
While online services exist, our firm provides customized operating agreements and state-specific guidance to properly establish your business entity with proper asset protection.
What happens if I don't have a will?
Without a will, your estate goes through probate with asset distribution determined by state law rather than your personal wishes, potentially creating family conflicts.
Can you help with business disputes across state lines?
Yes, we represent clients in Alabama, Florida, and Louisiana with contract enforcement, debt collection, and business transaction matters across state jurisdictions.
