Professional, Client-Centered Legal Services
At Metz, Bailey & McLoughlin, we understand that estate planning and probate administration are difficult subjects to confront. No one likes to think about what will happen to their family after they are gone. And handling the probate of a loved one's estate can be an overwhelming task. Our attorneys help clients through these processes, providing education and guidance along the way.
In addition to estate planning, we provide experienced representation for clients in the areas of labor and employment law, business law and elder law. We are a service-oriented firm that has been part of the Central Ohio community for more than 50 years. Our attorneys partner with clients to develop practical, effective solutions and strategies to achieve goals and protect client interests.
Assisting Clients to Prepare for the Future
Some of the most important decisions clients make regarding their family are estate planning decisions. How will assets pass on to loved ones? Or who will be the guardians for children or a vulnerable adult? At Metz, Bailey & McLoughlin, we help clients prepare tailored, legal documents necessary to provide for their family's future and to accomplish their goals. We also provide secured storage of original wills at no cost as a service to clients to ensure that documents are easily located when unexpected events occur.
Estate planning decisions often include evaluating elder law concerns. We have the experience to assist clients with such matters as Medicaid spend down, gifting of assets, maximizing allocation of assets to qualify for available exemptions and asset protection when a spouse needs long term care.
Then, upon the death of a loved one, our attorneys and staff assist clients in efficiently administering an estate and navigating the probate process. Probate laws and processes can be confusing, but clients can count on us for skillful representation and advice regarding the most current estate tax and probate laws.
Protecting Business Assets and Sources of Income
Clients' most valuable assets and resources are their businesses and sources of income. At Metz, Bailey & McLoughlin, we supply advice to employers and employees to protect these assets through advance planning, entity selection and formation, contract drafting, corporate governance and proper documentation. We also handle business purchase and merger issues, and advise employees and employers on labor and employment law issues.
