Nobody expects to be sued. Just ask the 20 million people who were involved in a lawsuit last year. Jason R. Breit, Esq. P.C. helps individuals, landlords, professionals, and family business owners across Long Island and New York City protect what they've built — for one fixed fee, agreed to in advance.

The More You Build, the More You Have to Protect

Divorce, inheritance disputes, creditors, employees, theft, malpractice claims, and disgruntled business partners are just a few of the things that can turn into a devastating lawsuit for an unprepared family or business owner. The uncomfortable truth is that the more success you have — especially in business, real estate, or a professional practice — the more exposed you become as others see that success grow.


You might be taking on more risk than you realize right now if you:

  • Sign loan documents, a personal guarantee, or a commercial lease
  • Own rental properties or have employees
  • Work as an attorney, physician, or other licensed professional
  • Work in construction or provide professional services
  • Are remarrying and bringing children from a prior marriage, or separate property, into a new marriage


Here's the thing: we want you doing more of all of this, not less. Building a business, investing in real estate, growing a practice — that's the whole point. We just make sure that success doesn't become the thing that takes everything away from you.

Protecting Family Businesses, Today and for the Next Generation
