Practice Areas

Real Estate

Real estate transactions require a special attention to detail, which we provide to buyers, sellers, and lenders in their residential and commercial real estate transactions. Please contact us if you are considering representation for your purchase & sale agreement, financing or any other real estate matter. Two lawyers in the firm, Kathleen McCarthy, and Justin B. McCarthy are both certified by the National Association of Development Companies to close SBA 504 Loan transactions.

Estate Planning

It does not make sense to risk the personal wealth that you’ve worked hard to build. Properly drafted wills, trusts, health care proxies and powers of attorney are essential components of an estate plan tailored to your needs and to help preserve what you’ve built and transfer to those you choose. Family disagreement can often be avoided before they arise through careful planning and implementation. We counsel heirs and family members in the administration of estates.

Business Law

Whether you are starting a new business, incorporating an existing business, or negotiating contracts on behalf of your business, we advise on business legal issues so that you may continue to focus on what you do best, running your business. Contact us to find out more about how our legal assistance can facilitate your business endeavor.

Probate

A probate is required when an individual dies with assets titled in their individual name without a named beneficiary. Even in situations where individuals have created an estate plan, assets can fall through the cracks, and require a probate to determine heirs and transfer property from a decedent’s estate. While the new Massachusetts Probate Code has improved the probate process, undertaking an estate administration can be daunting to those who are not familiar with the laws surrounding probate. An experienced probate attorney can guide you through the process, saving you time and money and giving you peace of mind. Please feel free to contact us if you have questions regarding the probate process or inheritance.
