Practice Areas
Family Law
At Reddy Law Firm, we recognize that family law problems can be stressful and emotionally challenging which is why our attorneys are sensitive to the situation and compassionate about the needs of our client. Our clients are provided individual, personal attention and educated about the relevant laws. We want our clients to understand their options and the legal process so that the client can make informed decisions that are in the best interest of themselves and their family. By knowing the role of the attorneys, what is required of the client, and what to expect during the course of representation, we are able to put our client’s at ease about the process and develop a strategy to aggressively represent our clients.
Family Law involves the legal aspects of the relationships between husbands and wives, as well as other family relationships, including domestic partnerships. The interrelationship and complexity of family life and its legal aspects brings to bear other areas of law such as constitutional law, contract law, property law, and estate planning, all within the practice of family law. At Reddy Law Firm, we are dedicated advocates for our clients and provide quality representation in a wide variety of family law matters such as:
When most people think of family law, the first thing that comes to mind is divorce. However, individuals with sizable incomes or assets should seriously consider taking advantage of a wide range of family law services such as pre-nuptial and post-nuptial agreements, co-habitation agreements, guardianships, and early estate planning.
When appropriate and with the goal of reducing the stress associated with family law matters, the attorneys at Reddy Law Firm will seek to resolve issues through mediation in order to facilitate a successful outcome reached through consensus and resolution. However, recognizing that negotiations can sometimes be futile thereby making mediation no longer an option, Reddy Law Firm offers zealous, respectful advocacy on behalf of the client for the most optimal outcome.
If you have questions about a divorce matter, including child custody or support obligations, or any other family related issues, please contact Reddy Law Firm for a consultation with one of our experienced attorneys.
Estate Planning and Probate
Reddy Law Firm represents clients in a variety of trust and estate matters. Estate planning involves the financial and medical directives that an individual desires to create during his/her lifetime to be implemented when the individual dies or is no longer capable of making decisions. At Reddy Law Firm, we provide individual clients with the following estate planning legal services:
- Wills
- Trusts
- Health Care Directives
- Durable Power of Attorney
- Living Wills
- Guardianships
- Estate and Trust Administration
- Probate
The law of trusts and estates primarily involves the management of personal affairs and the disposition of a person's property after he or she has died or becomes incapacitated. A "trust" is a legal concept whereby a grantor transfers legal ownership of property to a trustee. Trust assets typically are managed for the benefit of one or more beneficiaries. An estate generally consists of the property that a person bequeaths to his or her heirs after his/her death, which usually involves a testamentary instrument such as a will (or a last will and testament).
Reddy Law Firm is committed to providing a personalized approach in developing a client's estate plan. Our attorneys can guide you in filing petitions for probate and in the appointment of trust administrators. Trust administration is concerned with the administration and transfer of assets according to the directions set forth in a trust agreement. At Reddy Law Firm, we work with clients to evaluate discretionary issues on distribution of the trust assets, and to ensure that the assets of the trust are distributed accordingly. Our attorneys can also assist in the preparation of the final accounting, and with the assistance of a CPA, minimize taxes and expenses involved in trust administration.
Estate planning is executed with legal documents such as wills and trusts, and can be simple or complex, depending on the value of the assets, the distribution scheme, and whether tax planning is required. A comprehensive estate plan is vital and beneficial to a client's overall financial plan, and it can reduce tax consequences and provide clear guidance to avoid any family disputes and prolonged probate court battles.

When selling a business, it is important to ensure that after the sale, liability is cut off for any actions occurring after the closing date.
