    How Can Business Owners Avoid Probate?

    People often relate the concept of probate with feelings of dread and anxiety. However, here at Lauren Richardson Law, PLLC, we urge business owners not to fear the probate process. If you want to avoid probate, preparation is key. Probate, defined as the legal process of establishing the validity of a will, is especially important to think about if you are a business owner. Without taking the proper precautions, your successors, business partners and family members will most

    Is Estate Planning Just for the Wealthy?

    Lauren Richardson Law, PLLC, often provides legal guidance to clients in need of estate planning. From first-hand experience, Lauren Richardson knows that clients often feel confused when developing an estate plan. A last will and testament is one of the most essential components involved in estate planning. Without a will, your estate will be distributed to your heirs according to the intestate statutes, and your particular wishes may not be followed. Does a person's standa

    Why Should I Think About Incapacitation and Guardianship?

    How much do you know about guardianship? A guardianship allows one person or entity to make decisions for another, referred to as the ward. This is especially important in times of incapacitation and disablement. Mark Eghrari highlights three things people need to know about incapacitation and guardianship that they may be unaware of. Guardianship can be avoided with a Power of Attorney (POA) and healthcare directives. A Durable POA gives you the opportunity to choose who wil

    Mental Health Awareness in the Law Community

    Did you know that the suicide rate of lawyers is double that of the general population? It’s true! Mental illness impacts millions of Americans per year. However, those who work in the field of law are more likely to experience different forms of mental illnesses. For example, lawyers are 3.6 times more likely to suffer severe depression. In the National Task Force 72-page report, “The Path to Lawyer Well-Being: Practical Recommendations for Positive Change,” multiple suggest

    Hurricane Irma Safety Precautions

    With Hurricane Irma quickly approaching the state of Florida, we here at Lauren Richardson Law, PLLC, understand how daunting hurricane preparations can be. While purchasing gas, food and water, are some of the basic preparations, it is equally important to secure important documents either electronically or in a waterproof location in case of flooding.
