Areas of Practice
Family Law and Divorce
Our attorneys at Miles Patterson Hansford Tallant handle divorces, child custody proceedings, child support petitions, concerns over division of property, prenuptial and post-nuptial agreements, and domestic adoptions. Because these transitions are significant for most families, we work to minimize the negative impact of legal changes and walk you through the process with compassion, efficiency, and consideration for your budget.
Civil Litigation
In mediation, arbitration, appeals, or courtroom matters, we have the trial experience it takes to pursue a great outcome for you. We will work hard to build a solid case, leaving no stone unturned, ensuring you have formidable legal counsel throughout your proceeding.
We represent all kinds of businesses, from small partnerships to large corporations, in a variety of disputes that arise from professional relationships. Whether it is a breach of contract, violation of a non-compete agreement, illegal activity, or dissolution of a business, we will provide you with the highest level of legal counsel.
Business Planning
We help clients form new businesses or acquire existing businesses, limit their personal liability from the start with employee agreements, trademarks and copyrights, permits, and other important legal steps. This includes partnerships, mergers, and the formation of corporations (such as LLCs).
Criminal Law
We help protect your freedom, reputation, time, and money if you are charged with a sex crime, drug crime, violent crime, DUI, white collar crime or juvenile offense. We will evaluate your case, lay out all of your legal options, and if your case goes to trial, protect your rights in court.
DUI Defense
Our legal team is comprised of experienced and dedicated attorneys, including former prosecutors. We’ve had years of practice researching to uncover the facts in drunk driving cases. We’re known for carefully constructing strong defenses that produce excellent outcomes in court, despite serious opposition.
Zoning and Land Use Law (Commercial and Residential)
We represent individuals, homeowners, property management companies, developers, and businesses in purchase agreements, leases, construction and development contracts, foreclosures, land use disagreements, boundary disputes, Quiet Title actions, zoning and permits, tax appeals, lien law, and landlord-tenant disputes.
Government Representation
In over forty years of working with local government, we’ve acquired the insider knowledge and legal skill to represent government entities in almost any issue. When common legal problems arise, the government context complicates and alters the usual outcome. At Miles Patterson Hansford Tallant, LLC, our training is highly specific in this area, and can be indispensable for those who need it.
