Business Organization and Planning

Solid businesses are created from the ground up. Good planning can help businesses avoid headaches and disputes later, saving time and money. We offer a wide range of business services to limited liability companies, corporations, and partnerships including contract drafting, buy/sell agreements, operating agreements, and corporate governance.

Commercial and Civil Litigation

There are times when litigation is the only available avenue to remedy a dispute between the parties. In these cases, our firm can provide the effective representation needed to protect your interests. Some examples of issues that Weaver & Fitzpatrick have litigated on behalf of their clients include contract disputes; real property disputes; construction disputes; etc.

Estate Planning and Administration

Your estate plan is one of the most important tools you have for managing your affairs, protecting your assets, providing for your family, and ensuring your legacy. It is not easy to contemplate death, particularly one’s own death, but it is an inevitable fact that we will all pass from this life. Although we cannot control when we pass from this life, we can control is what happens after we die by preparing in advance.

Mediation and Alternative Dispute Resolution

When a dispute arises, mediation and alternative resolution should be explored before embarking on expensive litigation. Our attorneys are designated mediators for the Circuit Court of Frederick County, the Circuit Court of Howard County, Circuit Court of Washington County, and the Association of Realtors, and have served as arbitrators for a variety of disputes.

Thank you again for the many hours you shared to ensure my wishes were fully addressed as I proceeded with the sale of this property.  I am so grateful that you left no stone unturned throughout this process.  I truly appreciate the time you spent listening to and fulfilling my request to legally preserve our family’s rights to the private burial ground.
