Happy new year! Whew... we made it. Here we are, finally in 2021. While today I don’t quite yet feel like I just finished a marathon, it does feel like finishing an especially arduous leg of a marathon. A little lighter, but with some work yet ahead.

Protecting Your Employees

Think about getting a current valuation for your company to ascertain its potentially depressed value, and then discuss a gifting or sale strategy with an attorney and your accountant.

We know you've been inundated with messages from companies telling you about their response to COVID-19 so we’ll keep this brief.

I grew up in the Washington, DC metro area going back and forth between divorced parents living in Virginia and Maryland.

This week, we want to briefly discuss the other side of that coin—employers who set up plans for their employees to save money for those eventual “Golden Years.” (Cue the David Bowie music.)

Rarely do estate planning attorneys read national news that affects what we do. Unlike splashy headlines about Supreme Court decisions that affect civil rights or the Affordable Care Act, typically, landmark changes for estate planning come in the form of little-known Treasury Regulations or Tax Court cases.

Stock Legal's Work In The cannabis Space - My opinion on how to select a lawyer to represent you as you grow and scale a cannabis company.

When I graduated law school, I didn’t immediately know that I would end up as an “estate planning attorney.” When I met the team at Stock Legal I knew I was in the right place.

We are growing rapidly at Stock Legal. Now we need to grow our team in a way that matches our mission, vision and value, also in a manner that preserves the culture we’ve built here at Stock Legal.

Lawyers are seeking ways to narrow the field of uncertainty so that you can take care of business. We can help you understand the rules and how your conduct might affect certain outcomes.

Change can be good when properly planned for. A family that plans ahead can empower future generations to better weather the effects of economic and political pressures, for a more stable position as a family.

Identifying top strategic goals, budgeting for explosive growth while managing expenses, building out projections, creating new ways to serve clients, identifying opportunities to support our talented attorneys, and expanding vision for Stock Legal.

Challenges to lawyer well-being, affecting physical and mental health, are common. We innovate. We flex. We evolve. Our ability to operate differently arises out of our confidence and results in competence. Our team does not have to be at wit’s end to be effective; in fact, the contrary holds true here.
