One office for matters that do not fit into one box.
A divorce can involve a business. An estate can turn on real property. A workplace disagreement can become a contract dispute. Those connections are common, and they are easy to miss if each issue is viewed on its own.
Smith & Smith is a small California practice. Lee Steven Smith works with individuals, families, and businesses from the firm’s Sherman Oaks office.
The work starts with the record: the people involved, the documents, what has happened, and what needs attention now. From there, the firm can identify the legal questions and discuss the available routes.
Some matters call for planning or a negotiated solution. Others require court proceedings. The right course depends on the facts, the client’s priorities, and the likely cost and consequence of each option.
