Real Estate Litigation
Real Estate Law is the law related to buying, selling, leasing, developing and managing real estate. The law of real estate varies from state to state, although a few areas of real estate law have federal implications. Real estate law touches on federal law in the areas of eminent domain and taxation, as well as environmental and land usage law. Each of these fields also have state and even local law counterparts. Lawyers with a real estate practice typically represent buyers and sellers of real estate, but may also represent the interests of developers and investors. In this way, many real estate lawyers also are skilled in business law. In some states, lawyers do not play a large role in the closing of a real estate transaction, as those duties are handled by escrow and title companies. Typically, lawyers do not represent both the buyer and seller in a real estate transaction, though the law of many states allows them to represent both parties with fully-inform consent.
Construction Litigation
Our attorneys represent developers in all aspects of the development process, including site acquisitions, zoning, land use planning, and the negotiation and preparation of architectural and construction contracts. The main cities we practice law are in Detroit, Lansing, East Lansing, Battle Creek, Grand Rapids, Kalamazoo, Owosso, Jackson and St John's Michigan.

Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
Estate taxes, otherwise known as death taxes, are imposed on a decedent’s estate both at the federal and state levels. An estate planning attorney can assist in reducing estate-tax liability through the preparation of wills, trusts, insurance policies, and other legal arrangements.
Wills
A medical directive is a legal document that explains a person’s wishes regarding medical treatment in the event they become incompetent or unable to communicate. A medical directive is also called a living will because it is executed with the formalities necessary for a will.
Trusts
A trust is an asset-management device in which an individual (the Grantor) conveys specific property to another person (the trustee or administrator) who then holds and controls the asset for the benefit of a third party (the beneficiary). Trusts may be set up to benefit individuals or entities, such as schools or charities. The rights and obligations of the trustee and beneficiaries are set forth in a written trust instrument. A trust is referred to as revocable when the Grantor reserves the right to terminate the trust and recover its property at any time. Irrevocable trusts cannot be terminated by the Grantor once created. In most states, trusts are deemed irrevocable unless the Grantor indicates otherwise.
Power of Attorney
A power of attorney is a legal document that grants someone the authority to act as agent for a person who is unable to care for him or herself (‘Grantor’). A medical power of attorney allows a third party to make healthcare decisions for the Grantor. A power of attorney that authorizes an agent to handle business transactions on behalf of the Grantor is usually referred to as a general power of attorney. A durable power of attorney is one that remains in effect even after the grantor becomes incompetent. In Michigan, Medical Powers of Attorney are revocable as long as the Grantor is competent.
Probate

Bankruptcy
While bankruptcy cases are always filed in United States Bankruptcy Court (an adjunct to the U.S. District Courts), bankruptcy cases, particularly with respect to the validity of claims and exemptions, are often highly dependent upon State law. State law therefore plays a major role in many bankruptcy cases, and it is often not possible to generalize bankruptcy law across state lines. The Hathaway Law Center deal with two types of Bankruptcy in the State of Michigan as listed below. The main cities we practice law are in Detroit, Lansing, East Lansing, Battle Creek, Grand Rapids, Kalamazoo, Owosso, Jackson and St John's Michigan.
Foreclosure
The advantages of Chapter 13 over Chapter 7 include: the ability to stop foreclosures and to have a mortgage that has been accelerated declared reinstated upon bankruptcy plan completion; to achieve a super discharge of debts of kinds not dischargeable under Chapter 7; to value collateral; to bifurcate the security interest of creditors in certain property that creditors are either charging too much interest for, or are over-secured, or both, and in some cases; to prevent collection activities against non-filing co-signers (co-debtors) during the life of the case.
Tax Law
An estate tax, also known as a death tax, is a tax imposed on property that is transferred by will or by interstate succession (laws that apply to property distribution when an individual dies without a valid will). In 2001 President Bush passed the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act, which resulted in sweeping but impermanent changes in federal tax law. The Act is scheduled to be repealed at the end of the year 2010, but President Bush has already promised that he will seek to make its provisions permanent. An estate planning attorney can help clients anticipate and plan for changes under the 2001 Act.
