Cameron Law's goal is to be a family's long-term legal advisor and advocate and to offer superior professional services through a practice model that encourages win-win solutions that address all matters the client wishes to address.

As a collaborative law practice, Cameron Law offers clients more control, more privacy, individualized results and a more civilized process. The goal is to help clients focus on their most important goals and to provide an efficient, targeted and productive way to resolve disputes so that theyget to a resolution with as little financial and emotional damage as possible. Litigation can be demoralizing, dehumanizing, destructive, and devistatingly expensive way to play the "blame game". Cameron Law recognizes this and uses the collaborative process to change the focus from WHO is at fault to HOW to SOLVE the problem.

Cameron Law chose to be a collaborative law practice because it allows Cameron Law to make a positive difference in clients' lives

 

Collaborative Divorce

Collaborative Divorce is based on the concept that it is possible for the couple to resolve their differences without going to court.

The collaborative process allows both spouses to hire active legal counsel, but by stressing cooperation rather than retribution, it gives the couple greater control over the outcome of their divorce. Typically clients find that a collaborative divorce is less expensive and quicker than going to court, that their children benefit because they are kept out of the controversy, and that it allows the couple to maintain some sense of integrity and respect.

Probate

Probate is simply the process by which your last will is determined to be your final dispositive statement and which confirms the appointment of the person or institution you have named to administer your estate. The term probate is also used in the larger sense of probating your estate. In this sense, probate means the orderly method by which assets are gathered, applied to pay debts, taxes and expenses of administration, and distributed to those designated as beneficiaries in the will.

Small Estate Planning

If you are over 21, you need to do some kind of estate planning even if it is just having a will drafted. The alternative is to let the State decide, a process called intestate succession. The thing to remember about intestate succession is that it the the legislature's idea of how the average person with the average estate would, generally, distribute their possessions to their heirs. The problem is: you are not that average person.

Cameron Law uses a staged approach to estate planning for traditional and non-traditional families with small estates. If you are 21 and single, or are newly married generally a will, a health care directive and powers of attorney are all you'll need. When you start having children, its time to consider adding a trust and guardianship directives to the mix and it is a good idea to revisit your estate plan with each new child. Once the children are grown and/or when retirement looms, its time to change that trust and take another look at both your will and health care directives.

General Aviation

Cameron Law provides transactional services to that part of general aviation that can't afford a jet. Purchasing an aircraft or entering into co-ownership can an expensive transaction and can consume a significant amount of your discretionary income. Good business judgement suggests that you get legal assistance before committing your funds.

Over the course of a typical transaction you may be asked to sign a number of documents. An attorney can help prevent misunderstandings or later unmet expectations. There are no "standard" one size fits all contracts. Each contract must be tailor-made to your special needs.
