Our Estate Law Practice Areas
Here at Raimondo & Sundquist LLP, we help clients with a wide range of estate-related matters including the following:
- Wills: Creating a legally valid will is about far more than deciding who receives what. Our attorneys work closely with clients to draft clear, enforceable wills that reflect their wishes, account for changing family dynamics, and reduce the risk of disputes after death. We also assist with updating existing wills when life circumstances change.
- Trusts: Trusts can be powerful estate planning tools when used properly. We help clients establish revocable and irrevocable trusts tailored to their financial goals, family needs, and long-term planning objectives. Whether you are seeking asset protection, tax efficiency, or greater control over how assets are distributed, our firm provides thoughtful guidance.
- Powers of Attorney: A properly drafted power of attorney allows someone you trust to manage financial and legal matters if you become unable to do so yourself. Our lawyers ensure these documents are customized to your needs, comply with New York law, and clearly define authority to help avoid confusion or abuse during difficult times.
- Guardianships: When a loved one can no longer manage their personal or financial affairs, guardianship may be necessary. We assist families with guardianship petitions, court proceedings, and ongoing obligations, always focusing on protecting vulnerable individuals while ensuring legal requirements are properly met throughout the process.
- Advance Healthcare Directives: Advance healthcare directives allow you to make your medical wishes known before a crisis occurs. Our attorneys help clients prepare living wills and healthcare proxies that clearly outline treatment preferences and appoint trusted decision-makers, offering peace of mind for both you and your loved ones.
- Probate: Probate can be complex and emotionally taxing for families. We guide executors and beneficiaries through every stage of the probate process, from filing required court documents to resolving disputes and distributing assets, helping estates move forward as efficiently and smoothly as possible under New York law.
Our Family Law Practice Areas
Our Buffalo lawyers proudly represent clients facing all types of family law matters, including the following:
- Divorce: Divorce is rarely just a legal process; it is a personal transition that affects every aspect of life. Our attorneys provide steady guidance through contested and uncontested divorces, helping clients understand their rights, explore practical solutions, and move toward resolutions that support long-term stability.
- Child Custody: Child custody matters require careful consideration of a child’s best interests. We assist parents with custody arrangements involving legal and physical custody, parenting plans, and modifications, always working to protect parental rights while prioritizing the well-being and stability of the child involved.
- Child Support: Child support obligations can raise many questions and concerns. Our firm helps clients establish, modify, and enforce child support orders in accordance with New York guidelines, ensuring that financial responsibilities are fair, accurate, and reflective of current circumstances for both parents and children.
- Alimony: Spousal support, also known as maintenance, plays a significant role in many divorces. We advise clients on temporary and post-divorce maintenance issues, helping them understand how support is calculated and advocating for arrangements that reflect financial realities and promote fairness for all parties involved.
- Property Division: Dividing marital property can be one of the most challenging aspects of divorce. Our attorneys help clients address issues involving real estate, retirement accounts, businesses, and other assets to achieve outcomes that are balanced and well-reasoned.
Our Real Estate Services
Raimondo & Sundquist LLP represents clients facing a wide array of real estate matters, including the following:
- Residential Real Estate: Buying or selling a home is a major financial decision. We assist clients with residential real estate transactions from contract review through closing, addressing title issues, financing concerns, and potential complications to help ensure a smooth and legally sound transfer of property ownership.
- Commercial Real Estate: Commercial real estate transactions often involve significant investments and complex agreements. Our firm represents buyers and sellers in commercial matters, providing guidance on contracts, negotiations, and due diligence to protect clients’ interests throughout each stage of the transaction.
- Title, Easements & Property Rights: Issues involving property ownership and use can have long-term legal and financial consequences. We advise clients on title defects, easements, access rights, boundary concerns, and other property rights matters, helping to clarify ownership interests, resolve disputes, and protect the full use and value of real estate.
- Real Estate Litigation: When real estate disputes cannot be resolved informally, litigation may be necessary. Our attorneys handle real estate-related lawsuits involving contract disputes, boundary issues, title defects, and other conflicts, advocating effectively in court while keeping clients informed at every step.
