I am a pro-business attorney.  I work for my client to meet their needs, not my own.  Therefore, I
strive to inform my clients of the legal issues and options available
to them in each stage of the deal.  But, I realize that it is really their business (or opportunity)
not mine. They make the final informed decisions rather than me.  In that way, my client is most comfortable with the results.. I strive to ethically represent my client's best interests in all ways and at all times.  Therefore, while giving them the best legal representation that I can provide, I also try to identify: 1) non-legal issues that they may also need to consider; and 2) specialized professionals who they may also need to consult in order to be fully informed about the impact of their plans. I understand that there are often other professionals who are better equipped to meet my client's complete needs and encourage their participation.

As a business and estate planning lawyer, Loren has an eye on the finishing line on a daily basis. He works hand-in-hand with his clients, helping them define their goals, establish the tools to measure and adjust their goals and then maintain the accountability to see those goals come to fruition. “It’s not simply about getting the appropriate words into the correct documents.” Loren says. “It’s really about helping people understand that they can control their legal issues rather than allowing their legal issues to control them. The first step for most clients in this process is to develop a clear and specific plan for the future so that they can proactively take the steps to get where they want to be.”. Loren has seen the value of solid business planning throughout his entire life. His family, which has lived in Clark County for several generations, has been an integral part of the local business community in Battle Ground since the 1940s. This heritage has shaped Loren’s perspective on the trials and tribulations of business ownership and has developed a keen awareness of the importance of long-term planning. It also inspires him and his wife to pass this heritage on to the next generation by providing their four kids with the tools necessary to allow them the greatest opportunity to become future leaders in the community.
