She practiced with a prominent Salinas-based firm for 10 years, always combining Estate Planning and Business experience to bring tax-savvy solutions to her clients needs. In that time, she met and married her husband, and had two beautiful children. She moved her practice to Monterey in 2006, finally opening her own firm in July of 2007. In addition to her client work, Laura embraces responsibilities that extend into the community. She has been a proud Rotarian, and is now actively involved with the Monterey Peninsula Chamber of Commerce, serving on its Board of Directors and its Education Committee as Co-Chair in charge of Professional/Workplace Development programs.

How Can A Business Owner Ensure That Their Personal And Financial Goals Align With Their Chosen Exit Strategy?

Consulting with a financial advisor is a crucial step for making sure your exit plans are tenable and financially sound. Consider the results of a sale or transition and how this will impact you financially as you hand over the company.

Above all, it’s important to be realistic and adjust your financial goals and personal goals accordingly. Consider all possibilities and make plans to budget based on all possible financial results of your sale or transfer.

How Does A Real Estate Attorney Assist With The Purchase Or Sale Of Property In California?

A real estate attorney can help you obtain an appraisal, discuss whether the timing of the sale is truly beneficial to you, and help determine if a tax-free exchange would be a better option than a sale.

A real estate attorney can also review and advise on terms of the proposed listing or sale agreement, review inspection reports, and represent your interests with contractors.
