Burt Schain’s Attorneys

Asheville-based attorneys April Burt Schain and Jake Gray focus their practice in the areas of estate planning, administration, and litigation.

When you contact Burt Schain, you can expect to be treated with respect and consideration. You will receive a prompt return phone call and clear communication about your initial appointment. At that appointment, we will review your documents with you; if you have a litigation matter, we will discuss the strengths and weaknesses of your case, and formulate a plan for how to proceed, or even if you should proceed. Sometimes the sanest, most cost-effective decision is knowing when to let a dispute go; we offer the kind of risk-benefit analysis that allows you to make that choice.

When you retain us, we will explain our billing process clearly, so that you understand where your money is going. In an estate planning matter, you will receive an estimate of when your documents will be ready. As the client, you are an integral part of the team, and you will receive copies of all correspondence and court filings related to your case. We can’t guarantee an outcome for litigation, but we can promise accountability and clear communication.
