Chris Hansen advises clients on the best way to protect theirbusinesses and their estates.

His advice can range from advising on day-to-dayprocedures such as agreements for the purchase of products or servicesto guiding clients through major transactions such as the sale of thebusiness.

Protect your business - Counselingand advice may include entity formation such as forming a corporationor other entity, intellectual property such as registering yourtrademarks or copyrights, contracts encompassing every known agreementyou will encounter or require and pre-litigation such as negotiatingsettlements. I do not litigate on behalf of clients. My goal is toprovide you with the necessary tools so that you never have to ask ajudge to make a decision. I like to call that “Preventative Law.”

Protect your estate -  If you livein California and you own your home you need a trust.  My clients'estate plans usually consist of a trust, will, durable power ofattorney for finances, and advanced healthcare directives (or livingwills).  We sit down and go over your needs and desires and answer anyquestions you may have.  My goal is to educate my clients so that theyunderstand what will happen to their estate, or person, if acatastrophe occurs.
