We are able to meet with clients and potential clients via video conferencing (e.g. Skype, Facetime, etc.). Unfortunately, legal issues don’t shelter in place.

I had the opportunity to teach the public about the probate process, estate planning, and probate litigation this weekend.

The release of Avengers: Endgame made me think about this question. So I decided to do a fun and somewhat educational video about it. This is the firm's first video. I hope you enjoy it.

I settled a case right before trial. I think the opposition didn’t want to face the Hulk.

I will be teaching probate litigation next month. http://www.nbi-sems.com/Details.aspx/R-70463ER%7C

I received more great news today. Another trial I won in 2012 was affirmed on appeal. It's great having two of my victories affirmed in as many weeks.

I strategically settled a case to avoid a trial while getting my clients exactly what they wanted. I settled with one party leaving the remaining parties with no choice but to settle or endure a pummeling by me at trial. I received the final signature on the settlement agreement five minutes before trial was scheduled to begin.
