Comprehensive Legal Services at Mette Law

There is no knowing what twists and turns life will bring. One moment you may be driving to work, only to have your vehicle destroyed by another motorist who plows into the side of your car. In another, your spouse may inform you that your marriage is over, making you scramble to find a job and a new place to live. Or perhaps you are experiencing a suspension of your professional licensure, prompting you to consider whether you should switch careers.

At Mette Law, our team of legal professionals understands that life is not easy. We pride ourselves on continually updating our education in our respective specialties to defend your interests effectively. If you are interested in learning more about what Mette Law has to offer, keep reading.

Personal Injury

Every day, the instances in which people act with less than prudent care are far too many to count. A personal injury case involves proving fault and demonstrating the damages (losses) incurred. Fault can only be proven by establishing that the other person breached their duty of care to you, causing you harm. Damages often encompass lost wages, medical expenses, and non-economic losses, such as pain and suffering. At Mette Law, we represent individuals in motor vehicle collisions, rideshare accidents, slip and fall incidents, and medical malpractice, among other areas.

Criminal Defense

Anybody accused of a crime deserves their day in court. Simply facing criminal allegations can be damaging to one’s reputation, compelling them to resign from their job. Our criminal defense team handles matters about assault, manslaughter, fraud/forgery, drug charges, and violent crimes. No matter what offense you have been accused of, our legal team is here to protect your interests. We will take all necessary measures to avoid litigation and help you achieve the most favorable outcome.

Employment Law

Perhaps you are dealing with an employee who is appealing a workers’ compensation claim denial, seeking to maximize your 401(k) benefits for retiring employees, or facing a discrimination lawsuit. At Mette Law, we help businesses remain in compliance with all legal and regulatory requirements. We understand that nobody has time to keep up on the entirety of federal and state laws, which is where our employment law attorneys come into play. Our employment law attorneys are available to represent you in court and before administrative agencies, allowing you to focus on running your business.

Estate Planning & Elder Law

You may be considering updating your estate plan, or perhaps you have a family member who is aging and requires long-term care. When it comes to issues that arise in older individuals, the list can seem never-ending. Whether you are interested in discussing long-term care planning, setting up a trust to avoid probate, or need to establish an emergency guardianship for a family member, our legal team is here to help.

Real Estate Disputes

Owning land is often regarded as a quintessential part of the American Dream. However, obtaining that dream may involve hardship along the way. In any real estate transaction, each party is primarily concerned with its own interests. That is why you need someone looking out for you. At Mette Law, we have represented both buyers and sellers in easement disputes, title disputes, mortgage foreclosures, landlord/tenant matters, and contract disputes (to name a few). Our real estate attorneys will review your contract and corresponding paperwork to discern your legal rights.

Litigation

Sometimes, going to court is inevitable. In those cases, our litigation team is ready to provide effective counsel. Our trial attorneys have successfully assisted clients in both federal and state courts. We handle commercial disputes, with experience in representing corporations, partnerships, executives, and institutional clients. If you are facing government enforcement, including accusations of regulatory noncompliance or an administrative claim that threatens your professional licensure, we can help, too. In situations where litigation is unfavorable, we also offer arbitration and mediation services.
