Every day, there are more than 70,000 civil lawsuits filed in the United States. Many of these lawsuits target small business owners, physicians, real estate investors, and other high-net-worth individuals who have deep pockets and can afford to pay a settlement to make the case go away.
If filing a lawsuit presents an opportunity to make some easy money (especially when plaintiffs' lawyers take cases on a contingency-fee-basis so there is no financial risk involved for the claimant), you can be almost certain that the lawsuit is going to be filed.This makes asset protection planning essential for anyone who has a lot to lose.

Whether you are starting, growing, buying, or selling a business, there are legal considerations involved. If you are starting a new business, you need to select the legal entity structure that will provide the control and flexibility you require while also providing adequate protection for you and your co-founders.
If you are thinking about filing an action to contest a will in Texas, it is crucial to understand the circumstances in which you have grounds to do so. Texas law only recognizes specific legal grounds for contesting a will. If you need help disputing a document, or responding to someone's will contest, it is advisable that you speak with a Sugar Land will contest lawyer.
While many estates may be administered upon the testator's death with minimal complications, not all cases are so simple. Unfortunately, there may be situations where litigation of an estate is unavoidable. If you find yourself facing estate litigation in Sugar Land, you should consider speaking with a practiced lawyer.
Estate taxes can create substantial burdens for family members in the wake of a loved one's death.

Merari Zambrano took care of my Living Trust. She was amazing: Knowledgeable about the law and Personable.She explained everything to me in terms I could understand, and took the time to get things done right, writing instructions out for everything that I needed to do.
She got things done quickly, kindly, and at a reasonable price. I would highly recommend her.

My wife and I reached out to this firm to set up our estate documents. We knew that there were several to be drawn up which was quite overwhelming. Merari Zambrano and her associates made the process simple, thoroughly and patiently walking us through the documents and answering our many questions. We now have our completed documents after a painless undertaking. We will certainly recommend this firm for any of your legal needs.

I enlisted the services of Romano & Sumner to assist with a probate case for my aunt for which I was executor. Not being local to Houston, Mr. Sumner's help was invaluable and saved me much time and travel. When an issue came up after the probate and distributions were completed, Mr. Sumner's guidance and expertise were instrumental in addressing the concern with minimal issues. Thank you again for all of your help!

My husband and I hired Romano & Sumner for estate planning. Our case was handled by Merari Zambrano and her awesome team ( Alicia). We were managed with kit gloves of professionalism and care. Most of all they were responsive- which was an A+ in my book!. We had questions, they had answers. We were confused- they were clear. We have already recommended this firm to friends and family and will be returning for future services. Additionally, I thought pricing was fair.

Romano and Sumner worked with us to update our will and estate plans. Our interactions with all of the staff and Paul Romano were productive and professional. They took great care to explain the terms of the legal contracts and how our decisions would impact our descendants. They were also great about following up on questions and keeping the ball rolling. We would highly recommend their legal services.

The legal representation that I received from Romano & Sumner was First-Class. My case was an incredibly complex probate matter which involved more than a dozen plus opposing lawyers concerning a Will Contest. Paul worked diligently on the litigation and achieved a most favorable settlement for me. Moreover, Paul and Kenny always afforded me time in discussing every aspect of the case. I found both to be knowledgeable and professional and they make for a solid legal team. I feel truly blessed to have had them as my attorneys. With confidence I recommend the Romano & Sumner law firm.

I have been very satisfied with all of my dealings with Paul Romano and Kenny Sumner. I made an appointment to discuss converting my General Partnership to a Limited Liability Company (LLC.) I also discussed my conversion questions with 2 additional firms. Paul provided me with an excellent overview of the process, things to consider and costs to proceed. Based on our face-to-face meeting, I hired Romano & Sumner to proceed with the conversion.
