While minimizing the possibility of a business dispute is a goal for which to strive, sometimes litigation becomes necessary or is unavoidable. When that time comes, the litigation attorneys at Coffey & McCracken stand ready to apply their experience to advance and prosecute your legal claims and, if necessary, to defend against claims brought against you or your company.
The term Real Estate Law is broad. Among the areas it includes are residential and commercial purchase contracts, easements, leases, land trusts, property line and ownership disputes, condemnation and eminent domain, title insurance claims, and property tax matters. The attorneys at Coffey & McCracken, by focusing their practice, have the depth of knowledge to represent you and advise you on what can often become complex and technical issues. Whether your real estate needs are transactional or dispute-related, it is the attention to detail -- a focus pursued by the attorneys at Coffey & McCracken -- that often makes the difference in obtaining a successful outcome.
Estate planning is more than just preparing a will. It involves considering what you want to happen upon your disability or death, and then taking appropriate steps to see that your wishes will be carried out in a clear and tax-efficient way.
Our attorneys are well-versed in planning for you, your family and your business, and also in implementing an estate plan, whether it be your own estate plan or someone else's plan if you are acting on another's behalf (such as an Executor, Trustee, or Guardian). Our estate planning practice also includes our litigation practice in all matters concerning guardianship, powers of attorney, wills and trusts.
Everyone wants to be paid when they are owed money. Collection law involves collecting debts that are owed to you. They may be mechanics liens, breaches of contract, failure to pay for services or products, or failure to pay rent. The experienced attorneys at Coffey & McCracken don't stop at just obtaining a judgment against a debtor, but also pursue garnishments and other actions on your behalf to turn a judgment into cash.
