Now an easier, more affordable way to take care of common legal matters. Avoid the confusion and uncertainty of do-it-yourself legal forms. Get the peace of mind in knowing your legal matters are handled by an experienced attorney.
Revocable Trust, Pour-Over Will, Durable Power of Attorney – A revocable living trust is a common and excellent way to avoid the cost and hassle of probate. Including a pour-over will ensures that any assets that somehow were not included in the trust become assets of the trust upon your death. Plus, a durable power of attorney not only lets you appoint someone you have faith in to manage important financial and legal matters on your behalf, but stays in effect if you become incapacitated and unable to handle matters on your own. – $750 + cost of funding trust with assets like deeding real property from individual to trust
Uncontested Divorce (includes property settlement agreement) - When both members of a couple agree to divorce, filing for an uncontested divorce can save time and money. Our attorneys will also incorporate a property settlement agreement into the divorce decree that will become a legally binding part of the final judgment. This agreement may include the division of real property, personal property, financial assets, business assets, as well as the allocation of debts incurred while married. – $750 + filing fees
Eviction (includes court trial, jury trial extra) – For a landlord to properly and legally evict a tenant from a rental property, the landlord must follow many procedures to the letter of the law.

Hibbard has a long•standing history of effectively resolving landlord/tenant issues.

Business Formation, Incorporation, LLCs – Forming a new business involves deciding whether it will be a sole proprietorship, partnership, corporation, or limited liability company (LLC).

Our attorneys are knowledgeable about the benefits and liabilities of each type of entity and will assist you in determining the best type of business entity for your business. – $450 + filing fee
Simple Will – If you don’t have any significant assets (i.e. any real estate or other assets exceeding $100,000), you can probably get by with a simple will. The Law Office of Howard L. Hibbard can draw up a legally binding will that leaves your property to the people and organizations you choose, as well as name a guardian to care for your minor children. However, there are other options, such as setting up a living trust. Our offices will assist you in making the best choice to suit your needs. – $250 = total fee
