On Wednesday, February 21, 2024, Flink Maswick Law PLLC and Tina Leonard Real Estate, LLC cohosted the latest Business and Networking Group (“BANG”) meeting. The group, which has existed for well over 15 years, involves a group of local businesses in the Tri-Lakes area. Employers and staff from a variety of establishments were present and sipped on coffee and discussed further ways to support member businesses and help current members succeed in their goals.  The BANG networking group is a great way to network and connect with other Tri-Lakes businesses in a casual setting and has fostered long term, strong relationships amongst members.

Jamey Maswick, an attorney in our firm, spoke at the inaugural Tri-Lakes Real Estate Investors Meet Up organized by Ross Manny, a local real estate investor, at Bitters & Bones in Saranac Lake Wednesday, January 31, 2024. Jamey spoke on legal considerations in real estate investing and mentioned different concepts, concerns and ideas such as strategies for lending and planning ahead, insurance, taxes, dealing with the Adirondack Park Association and forming limited liability companies and making sure you have your partnership or LLC Operating Agreement in such a way that is clear for each of the partners. Jamey was happy to speak to the group, network with attendees after and was honored to be asked by Ross to speak at this inaugural event. Other speakers included a local builder, Steve MacNerland of Dak Builders, Inc., and local real estate agent Chase Jermano of Tina Leonard Real Estate. If you would like Jamey or any of our attorneys to speak to your group, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

James L. Maswick, an attorney with Flink Maswick Law PLLC, recently had the opportunity to litigate a two-day trial between family members over who would make the best guardian for an allegedly incapacitated person (“AIP”). The AIP was another family member of all of the folks seeking to be guardian. James called seven witnesses in support of the petition and cross-examined witnesses produced by the opposing party. The proof presented by Mr. Maswick at trial was overwhelming enough that the Court issued a Decision from the bench placing Mr. Maswick’s clients as co-guardians of the AIP moving forward. If you or someone you know has a situation involving a guardianship proceeding, please don’t hesitate to contact Flink Maswick Law PLLC.

Flink Maswick Law PLLC, together with Tina Leonard Real Estate, hosted the Lake Placid Business Association (“LPBA”) January evening meeting and mixer on Tuesday, January 16, 2024 at their offices on Main Street in Lake Placid. It was a nice time to hear updates about some of the Town of North Elba and Village of Lake Placid news and upcoming events in town. The guests enjoyed food and drink and mingled. We thank everyone for coming and hope everyone had as good of a time as we did!
