We offer a variety of services in our practice. For some, we are divorce or custody or child support lawyers. For others, we are probate attorneys or civil litigators. And for families, we help with estate planning. We serve in West Plains, MO, and the surrounding area. Please browse below for more about what we do.

For any and all families, estate planning is an important piece to a family’s future wellbeing.

We assess what your family assets consist of and what your ownership includes. We craft a plan with your accountant or other business planners to determine what is in your best interests.

Then, we determine if you need a simple will with a beneficiary deed, powers of attorney, living will, or even more complex structures like an irrevocable living trust.

No matter what you need, we are prepared to tailor a plan for you. Sometimes, this means implementing a strategy that goes beyond a basic will. We assist with family business and business planning tool, so that your legacy will continue with the fewest tax implications.  

We provide services for the formation of business organizations and any subsequent legal matters. In conjunction with your financial and tax planner, we determine the ideal business structure or organization for your business needs.

Depending on your situation, we can assist with the formation of a partnership, corporation, or limited liability corporation. As your business grows, we help you monitor your acquisitions and sales agreements, particularly in case you might later want to sell because of the financial success of your business. 

Of course, if during your journey, any litigation arises from the operation of your business, we help you navigate that process. 

We can provide legal services for a variety of traffic-related matters, including speeding tickets, DWIs, careless and impudent driving, and driving without a license. We offer representation within the counties identified on our home page.

As a family law firm, we understand that traffic incidents can occur. Some of our clients, on the behalf of a family member, find their way into our office. A grandchild received a speeding ticket. A child was ticketed for reckless driving. We get it. We are here to help.
