Succession & Probate
When a loved passes, it is important to sit down with an attorney to evaluate the estate in order to make a well informed decision on how to proceed. Not all estates require a succession. If one needs to be opened, you need to get sound legal advice on the best options on how to proceed.

Meet Frank
I was raised on the Northshore of Lake Pontchartrain in St. Tammany Parish. It was an easy decision to decide to open my law firm here in Covington, Louisiana to serve the community which I’ve been a part of for over 40 years.
I enjoy meeting new clients and helping them with whatever new opportunity, problem, or need that may have at the time.
Feel free to call anytime to talk about your business needs, preparing a Will to protect your loved ones, or just a conversation about estate planning.

Business law deals with the legal requirements and practical steps to form and run your business. This includes strategic planning, deciding on the organizational structure of your business, licensing and regulation, compliance, risk management, drafting & reviewing partnership, operating, and employment agreements as well as contracts, negotiations, and master service agreements.
Affordable Pricing for Our Services

Wills & Estate Planning
Let us help you plan for your future and to protect your legacy. Our estate planning and elder law services help you organize your personal and financial affairs so that your wishes can be made known to your loved ones regarding the transfer of your estate, end of life decisions, and in the event it is needed, planning for your long-term care.
Drafting and executing a Will, Trust, and other Estate Planning documents requires assistance from an experienced attorney. It is important to ensure that the correct legal form and terms are used. A properly drafted Will helps your loved ones with the succession and probate process. Decisions that you make in your Will can also decrease the cost of administering and managing your succession.
We provide advice and understanding regarding the overall aspects of estate planning and end of life decisions.
Successions & Probate
When a loved one passes away, certain processes must take place to ensure the proper transfer of the decedent’s estate to their successors. This is accomplished through the process known as opening a succession or probate. Importantly, Succession/ Probate are how you obtain ownership and the ability to sell the possessions, such as real estate and vehicles, that make up the estate.
