A Premarital Agreement can help ensure that a couple, not the court, decides how their property would be split in the event of a divorce.

In a Premarital Agreement, you can specify assets that will remain your separate property, what you would like to be considered community or shared property, and you can even specify how you would like to classify assets that you do not currently own. The parties can also stipulate that one party would benefit in a certain way from the marriage.

Our experienced attorneys will be able to explain what is typical and implement creative solutions for your unique situation to ensure that the finished product is going to reflect your individual needs. Our goal is for you to have the peace of mind to move forward in your marriage and into a bright future. The process is painless and straightforward.

Reasons for a Premarital Agreement:

• Protect assets that you have now or may acquire in the future
• Protect assets for you, your parents, or your children from a previous relationship
• Limit or eliminate the risk of having to pay alimony or spousal support
• Protect assets (in particular a business) that are owned by you and other parties
• Protect your parent’s legacy and your inheritance

Let us help you and your partner protect both of your financial interests before entering into your marriage.

You’ve worked hard to develop a business and to identify the business with your brand.  This brand has value to your business and is an asset to your business.  It is vital that you take all the necessary steps to ensure your asset is protected.  Failure to properly secure your trademark leaves your business vulnerable, and other businesses could copy or utilize your brand in their marketing and advertising efforts.  Allowing this to happen to your brand could significantly diminish the value of the goods or services you provide and have devastating consequences on your income potential and your business’s value.

Don’t let this happen to you.  If you filed your trademark application and have received an office action from the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), you should take immediate steps to follow through with the application and ensure you can protect your business.

Warning!  Failure to respond timely could result in your application being abandoned.  The USPTO has many lawyers who are well versed in the federal trademark laws.  You should seek the help of an experienced trademark lawyer who can help you fight to protect your trademark.  Remember, filing a trademark application is a legal action. Trying to sort through the process without the help of an experienced lawyer could cost you a lot of time and money.

Our firm can review your trademark application, do the appropriate searches, and help you make the best decision for your business to proceed with your application.  We understand how important a brand is when building a business. We’ve been there ourselves, and we want to help you.  We will do everything we can to make the process simple and easy for you.  We will work on the legal issues and make sure your deadlines are met, allowing you to continue to focus on growing your business with the peace of mind knowing we are taking care of you and your brand.
