Drew Chalfant answered on Feb 27, 2021

A trademark attorney can help break this down for you. Most of them over charge their clients and don’t really give a s*** about your business beyond the trademark filing. Call me if you want a fair price on your trademark and someone who wants to plug in as a legit partner in your company’s growth.

Q: Is there any way to get around buying a sibling out of a property, in a situation where there is no will?
Moshe Toron Esq
Moshe Toron Esq answered on Feb 27, 2021

If there is no will, then all siblings inherit equally. If one does not buy out the others or if the property is not sold, then they all end up owning the property equally, as tenants in common, with equal rights to inhabit the home.
