Practice Areas
Our modern practice is designed to make legal planning more secure, organized, and accessible. For some clients, that means creating a clear and practical estate plan to protect loved ones and avoid unnecessary complications. For others, it may involve advanced trust planning, wealth transfer strategies, business ownership issues, or emerging legal risks involving privacy, data, and artificial intelligence. In every matter, Sellers Johnson Law provides careful guidance tailored to the client’s goals, responsibilities, and circumstances.
Our two primary Practice Areas are Trusts & Estates and Business Law.
Please explore them below.
TRUSTS & ESTATES SERVICES
BUSINESS LAW SERVICES
Business Formation, Governance, & Compliance
Strategic Foundations for Entrepreneurs, Small Businesses, and Professional Practices
A successful business requires more than filing an entity and downloading standard forms. We help entrepreneurs, professional practices, real estate investors, and closely held companies make informed decisions about how the business should be structured, governed, taxed, documented, and maintained. Backed by decades of legal, business, technology, and tax experience, including an LL.M. in Taxation, our firm provides practical legal judgment that helps business owners protect personal assets, reduce avoidable risk, and build a stronger foundation for growth.
We provide clear, secure guidance for owners who want their business structure to work in the real world, not just on paper. Our work may include entity formation, operating agreements, governance records, S-Corp election planning, annual compliance, ownership changes, and related business documentation, but the focus is always on the strategy behind the documents. We help clients understand the legal and operational consequences of each decision so the business is properly organized, remains in good standing, and is better positioned for financing, expansion, succession, sale, or transfer.
Technology & Intellectual Property
Protecting Innovation, Brand Value, and Digital Business Assets
Modern businesses rely on more than physical assets and standard contracts. They depend on brand identity, original content, websites, software tools, digital platforms, client data, proprietary business processes, and technology relationships that can become valuable business assets when properly protected. We help businesses make informed decisions about licensing, vendor relationships, and the protection of technology and intellectual property, such as trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets. Backed by decades of legal, business, and technology experience, our firm provides practical guidance that helps clients preserve control over what they create, reduce risk in digital operations, and build stronger legal foundations for growth, transfer, or sale
AI Law & Governance
Navigating the Intersection of Law, AI, and Emerging Technology
Artificial intelligence is no longer limited to technology companies. Businesses of every size use AI tools, automated systems, and AI-enabled vendor platforms to support client service, marketing, operations, document workflows, decision-making, and data analysis. We help businesses evaluate the legal, privacy, contractual, ethical, and governance risks that arise when AI is introduced into daily operations. Backed by legal, technology, privacy, and AI governance experience, our firm provides practical guidance that helps clients adopt emerging technologies responsibly, protect confidential information, manage vendor and compliance risk, and build appropriate guardrails before AI use creates avoidable exposure
Business Succession & Asset Protection
Protecting Business Value for Owners, Families, Real Estate Investors, and Professional Practices
A successful business should be built not only for daily operations, but also for transition, continuity, and protection. We help business owners, professional practices, family-owned companies, and real estate investors plan for the legal and financial consequences of death, disability, retirement, divorce, creditor claims, ownership disputes, and future sale or transfer. Backed by deep Trusts & Estates experience and an LL.M. in Taxation, our firm provides integrated legal judgment that connects business planning with estate planning, tax planning, and long-term wealth preservation.
We provide clear, secure guidance for owners who want their business interests and investment assets protected during life and transferable at death. For real estate investors, for example, this may include coordinating rental property LLCs, ownership structures, liability protection, trust ownership, and succession planning so the business structure aligns with the broader estate plan. The focus of our work is always on designing a structure that reflects the owner’s real-world goals. Our approach helps clients limit their liability, reduce conflict, protect family wealth, and create a coordinated plan for who will own, manage, control, or benefit from the business when circumstances change.
Privacy & Data Protection
Modern Privacy Counsel for a Data-Driven World
Modern businesses collect, store, and share sensitive information, through websites, client forms, CRM systems, payment platforms, vendor relationships, employee files, and professional service engagements. We help businesses understand their privacy and data protection obligations and adopt practical safeguards that align with their operations. Backed by legal, technology, and privacy governance experience, our firm provides clear guidance on the policies, contracts, data practices, and risk controls needed to protect client information, reduce regulatory and reputational exposure, and support trusted business relationships.
