Did You Know?
  • About 94% of civil lawsuits filed settle before ever reaching trial.  Very often, early and serious efforts at settlement can save you a large amount of time and attorney fees.
  • That most contested divorce cases end up in a property settlement, which is very similar to what would have been done if both spouses settled on a fairly even division of their property at the beginning of the divorce action.  The only difference is that they have now spent thousands of dollars on attorney fees, decreasing the amount of their life savings available for each party in starting a new life.
  • That serious Estate Planning before death can save thousands of dollars in inheritance and estate taxes, as well as Probate and attorney fees. 
  • That Pennsylvania business law allows for several business types, which present more choices for liability protection and adequate tax planning. Make sure you choose the right type and that you and your business are fully protected.
  • Without a Will in Pennsylvania, the estate of a deceased person will be distributed in accordance with Pennsylvania law and not as the deceased may actually have desired.
  • That the rules for a landlord’s legal action against a defaulting tenant require specific procedures as well as matters that must be addressed in a lease.  Do  not  get  caught short with insufficient documentation.
  • That Pennsylvania Real Estate Law requires a seller to disclose any known defects to the buyer.  Do not get caught short with faulty disclosures or other closing irregularities that can end up costing thousands.
