Estate Planning
& Administration
Making decisions about the end of a person's life is never easy, but dealing with these matters well in advance of when they may become relevant can provide peace of mind and ensure that a person and their loved ones will be provided for, no matter what happens. Estate planning can help individuals and families plan for the future, protect their assets, and minimize estate taxes. We can help you create a comprehensive estate plan that fits your unique needs and objectives.
Following the death of a loved one, we can help with the estate administration process, including probate proceedings. We understand the difficult issues that can arise during this time, and we can help you navigate concerns related to the disposition of assets, trust administration, or probate litigation as efficiently and effectively as possible.
APPEALS FAQS
What Does the Appeal Process Look Like?
Answer: After submitting a notice of appeal, our attorneys can draft a persuasive appellate brief, and we can make impactful oral arguments before the appellate court if necessary.
Appeals
Civil litigation cases can be complex, and even after a final verdict is handed down, this may not be the end of a legal matter. There are multiple types of situations where plaintiffs or defendants may pursue appeals and seek to overturn verdicts or decisions that were made in error. Our attorneys have handled appeals in a wide range of cases, including appeals of judgments, orders, and verdicts in state and federal courts.
When I was looking for a law firm to handle our real estate transactions, I was really blessed when I met with the team at Cain & Kiel Law...
...Over the past two years we have developed a wonderful relationship with everyone in the firm. Scott and his team have handled all of our legal work on real estate, developments, litigation, oil and gas and everything has been done respectfully and with complete transparency. Brent has helped us with our estate planning and done a fantastic job. Valerie exceeds expectations with her excellent communications and fast turnarounds and Colista is always super to work with. Scott has assembled a fantastic team and I would highly recommend them for any of your legal needs.
