Commercial Dispute Settlement

Formal litigation should almost always be a last resort. Even if you win, you often still lose. It is not just the treasure spent on lawyers, but also the opportunity cost of your energy and effort diverted from growing your business. 

TAAG Law takes a business approach to commercial disputes. Emotion must be removed; what is the return on investment to litigate?

In most cases, a negotiated settlement strategically cauterizes your losses, secures a release, and provides you with confidence to move forward.

For many businesses and entrepreneurs, real estate is a critical asset. Whether for operations or investment, property can quickly become a liability if mismanaged.

Wills & Estates

Wills, powers of attorney (POAs), and trusts are crucial for any client looking to safeguard their legacy and confidently plan succession to the next generation.

Without these important tools, uncertainty, unnecessary and avoidable taxes (probate), and the lack of plan can severely deteriorate estate value.

By focusing on clarity, precision, and the unique circumstances of each client, we ensure that your final wishes are clearly articulated and equally enforceable, ensuring your estate’s smooth transition to your beneficiaries.


  • Comprehensive Primary & Secondary Wills
  • Estate & Succession Planning
  • Estate Freezes & Inter Vivos Trusts

Predictable and Fair Legal Fees

TAAG Law strives for transparency and fairness in its billing practices. We typically offer block pricing for most standard projects (e.g., incorporation, shareholder agreements, real estate closings, wills, capital raises or business sales, etc.). Block pricing ensures clients know exactly what they are going to pay and for what.

More abstract projects are generally supported on a billable basis (e.g., where legal research is required). Our billable hours are calculated to the second, not rounded up, and fully disclosed on your monthly invoice.

We also accept retainers for either large corporate clients or serial entrepreneurs with sophisticated holdings. Retainers are a fixed monthly fee that significantly discount legal fees, benefiting both sides.
