Business Matters in Louisiana
My firm can help you resolve all types of business issues, including the following:
- Setting up LLCs - When starting a business, forming a limited liability company (LLC) enables you to combine the limited liability of a corporation with the operational flexibility and tax benefits of a partnership. You must go through a multi-step process in order to set up the business.
- Collections - Obtaining legal counsel can help you exert pressure on clients that are refusing to pay for goods or services. Proper counsel enables you to have legal support during the pre-trial, trial and post-trial period, thus giving you the best chance possible of getting reimbursed.
- Property Transactions - An experienced business matters attorney can provide you with valuable support when purchasing or selling a property, and can help you navigate the multiple issues that can arise from such a transaction. Issues can include ensuring the title is valid, working with city officials on coding and other topics, dealing with existing tenets' demands and conducting modifications to the sale contract.
- Construction Liens - When you complete work on a property, only to have the owner refuse to pay you, filing a construction lien can result in a claim being put on the property. This lien stipulates that you must be reimbursed before the property can be sold, or obtain reimbursement from the proceeds of the sale.
I'm available to work relentlessly on your behalf in order to help you with your legal needs. I will fight vigorously on your behalf, as well as will stay in touch with you throughout the process so you can always get answers to your legal questions.

How will child support be calculated?Child support is calculated differently depending on the state one resides in, but the general factors taken into consideration by the court when calculating payments include:
- the standard of living of the child prior to the divorce;
- the ability to pay of the parent giving child support;
- the specific needs of the child, including their food, clothing, and educational costs; and
- the needs and income of the custodial parent (the parent with primary custody of the child).

How do I know if I have a personal injury claim?
A personal injury accident is the result of the negligent, reckless or careless action of another. An accident that occurs from the use of a dangerous or defective product is an example of a personal injury accident. Another example is a drunk driver who causes a car collision with injuries or fatalities. In the case of negligence, the victim may be eligible for monetary compensation that can include lost income, medical expenses, and pain and suffering. Beau Layfield and The Layfield Law Firm, LLC can represent a client in court and negotiate with insurance companies to pursue the maximum possible compensation.
-
Is adoption a long process?
Each adopted child has different circumstances. There are several types of adoptions that could take place, including a stepparent adoption, a private adoption or a standard adoption. Each has its own specific challenges. With the help of my firm, we will speed the process through the system as quickly as we can so that you can begin your new family and move forward with starting life together.

How much money can I expect in a settlement?Each personal injury accident is different and the worth of the injuries will depend on the circumstances of the accident and the severity of injuries and disability. Insurance companies have specific calculations they use when assigning a monetary value to the pain and suffering resulting a personal injury causing accident. The firm will protect your right to compensation and pursue legal action if necessary.
Before settling an insurance claim, contact The Layfield Law Firm, LLC to review your case. They can zealously protect your right to fair and full compensation, and your case will be given the focus and priority it deserves.

How long will the divorce process take?
The length of your divorce proceedings will depend on different factors, which include how long it takes to serve divorce papers to your spouse, whether your spouse is willing to waive their rights to service and notice of trial, whether you have minor children from the marriage and legal delays. Typically, it will take 20 to 40 days to receive a divorce judgment from the court after papers have been served. If your spouse decides to waive his or her rights to service and notice of trial, the judgment can come swiftly. It is important to note that a judgment does not become finalized until the 30-day "appeals" window has ended.
Another important point to note is that you must be living separately from your spouse for six months (or longer if there are minor children from the marriage) before being able to file a petition, unless there are extenuating circumstances, such as your spouse committed a felony. Securing an attorney for legal representation may result in your divorce process being resolved much faster than you attempting to navigate the proceedings on your own.
