After 25 years building our family manufacturing business, my siblings and I faced the daunting task of planning for its future and our own estates. The complexity of tax implications and ensuring a fair transition was overwhelming. We chose Janice Davies based on her strong reputation in Charlotte, particularly her LL.M. in Estate Planning from the University of Miami and her recognition in trusts and estates. From our first meeting at Davies Law PLLC, her deep expertise was evident. She didn't just draft documents; she facilitated crucial family conversations about wealth transfer and leadership roles we had avoided. Her dual focus on tax law and business succession planning was invaluable. She structured a plan that minimized our tax burden while creating a clear, equitable roadmap for the next generation. The process was thorough, and her professionalism made a stressful situation manageable. We now have complete confidence in our business's continuity and our family's financial security. Her inclusion in Super Lawyers is well-deserved. We cannot recommend Janice highly enough for anyone navigating similar waters.
