A central Ohio law firm focused on legal issues facing senior citizens, families, and disabled individuals.
We provide comprehensive long-term care planning services, including advanced healthcare directives, asset protection planning, and qualifying for Ohio Medicaid assistance for long-term nursing care costs.

Regardless of your assets, a well-thought-out estate plan provides peace of mind knowing that you and your loved ones will be taken care of no matter what the future brings. We provide comprehensive estate planning services to clients of all ages and familial circumstances, including business owners and retirees.
Administering an estate can be a complex endeavor. We provide full-service probate and estate administration legal services to help you navigate the many challenges posed by administering a loved one’s estate. Whether you are an estate executor or administrator, or a beneficiary wanting to protect your inheritance, please give us a call to see how we can help you with your probate and estate administration issue.
If a loved one is unable to care for themselves, a Guardianship proceeding may be necessary. Often, a physical disability or lack of mental capacity requires a third party, a “Guardian” to be appointed to manage financial affairs and/or arrange medical care and treatment.
Planning for a loved one with special needs requires consideration of their current and future financial, housing, and healthcare needs. We work closely with parents, Guardians and family members to ensure that your loved one’s needs will be met going forward without jeopardizing government benefits and services.
Oftentimes a stepparent will take over the primary parenting role of the biological parent. It is very important to hire a law firm with experience representing stepparents and biological parents going through a stepparent adoption proceeding.
Ending a marriage can be very stressful – and it is our job to lessen the stress. We represent clients in contested divorces, marriage dissolutions, and legal separation proceedings. Most of our family law proceedings are based on a flat fee arrangement, which provides you with certainty as to the cost.
With knowledge and foresight, we assist our clients in being involved and informed in their unique decision-making process. We offer a wealth of information including videos, detailed blog postings on hot topics, informational articles, and comprehensive seminars to educate our clients. If you have any questions, we offer free consultations to discuss your personal needs.
