The firm's framework
Integrated legal planning, not five separate opinions
Coronel David Law Firm has advanced a holistic legal planning model that combines business law, asset protection, real estate, business succession, and estate planning under one coordinated framework.
Most business owners assemble their legal life one emergency at a time. A corporate attorney forms the LLC. A different firm papers the building purchase. Years later an estate planning attorney drafts a trust that has no idea the company exists. Each document is competent on its own. Together they contradict each other.
By bridging practice areas that are often delivered separately, the firm helps clients proactively protect, grow, and transfer wealth while aligning personal, business, and legacy planning objectives. One attorney holds the whole picture, so the operating agreement, the lease, the buy-sell agreement and the trust are drafted to work as a single system.
All of these legal strategies are offered to clients in English and Spanish, expanding access to sophisticated legal counsel for Central Florida's business and Hispanic communities.

The trust that owns nothing
A revocable trust is signed, but the LLC membership interest was never assigned to it. The company still goes through probate. The trust is a filing cabinet with nothing in it.
The buy-sell nobody funded
Partners sign a buy-sell agreement with a purchase price but no funding mechanism. When a trigger event happens, the surviving owner cannot afford to buy, and the deceased partner's spouse becomes a business partner.
Personal guarantees that outlive the entity
The LLC was formed to contain liability, then every lease and loan was personally guaranteed. The structure exists on paper and nowhere else.
Real estate held in the operating company
The building sits inside the same entity that signs customer contracts. One lawsuit against operations now reaches the property.
Protection planned after the claim
Asset protection moves made once a creditor is already circling can be unwound as fraudulent transfers. Timing is most of the strategy.
Plans that were never updated
A partner left, a child was born, a property was sold, the company doubled. The documents still describe a business that no longer exists.
How an engagement usually runs
Discovery
We map what actually exists: entities, ownership percentages, real property, contracts, insurance, existing estate documents and personal balance sheet.
Gap analysis
We identify where the documents contradict each other, where liability is not contained, and where a transfer would fail today.
Framework design
We propose one integrated structure covering the entity, protection, property, succession and estate layers, with a sequence and a cost.
Implementation
We draft and execute the documents in the right order, including the funding and assignment steps most plans skip.
Maintenance
Structures decay. We schedule review points tied to real events: new partners, new property, new children, a sale.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Is this more expensive than hiring separate attorneys?
Usually not, and often less. Duplicated intake, conflicting drafts and later corrective work are the hidden costs of a fragmented approach. Fees are quoted for the scope agreed in writing before work begins.
I already have a business attorney and an estate planning attorney. Do I need to replace them?
No. Some clients engage the firm specifically to review whether their existing documents work together and to correct the gaps, then keep their existing relationships.
Do I need to be a large company for this to make sense?
No. Integration matters most for closely held companies, family businesses and real estate owners, where the same person is the operator, the owner and the estate.
Can everything be handled in Spanish?
Yes. Consultations, document explanation and client communication are available in English and Spanish.
How long does an integrated planning engagement take?
It depends on how many layers need work. A focused review of existing documents is typically a few weeks. A full framework covering entity restructuring, property titling, a buy-sell agreement and an estate plan usually runs over several months, because the documents have to be executed in sequence and funding steps take time at banks and title companies. You receive a written scope and timeline before work begins.
