A Voice That Lives On: The Future of Estate Planning

What if your children could still hear your voice—your stories, your laughter, your love—even after you’re gone?

Thanks to new AI voice technology, that’s now possible. With just a few recordings, you can create a digital voice model that allows your loved ones to hear personal messages, family memories, and life advice in your own voice.

This new option is powerful and deeply personal. But it must be done carefully—with clear legal protection, consent, and secure storage.

If you want to leave your loved ones more than just financial assets—if you want to leave your presence—let’s talk. Contact Lei Jiang LLC to start building a meaningful, modern estate plan that includes everything that matters most.

Business Succession Starts with Knowing Your Business Value

If you’re a business owner, you should be able to answer: What is my business worth? Whether you’re planning to retire, transfer ownership to the next generation, or simply want to be ready for opportunities, understanding your company’s value is foundational to smart decision-making.

Why Knowing the Value Matters? It will help you:

  • Plan for ownership transition—whether to family, partners, or outside buyers.
  • Navigate estate planning and tax strategies.
  • Secure appropriate insurance coverage or financing.
  • Benchmark your performance against industry peers.

Value Drivers Go Beyond the Numbers

While financials are central, many qualitative factors influence business value also:

  • Strength of management team
  • Customer diversity and loyalty
  • Operational systems and scalability
  • Market position and competitive edge

These “value drivers” help distinguish your company and make it attractive to successors or investors. Identifying and improving them takes time but is worth huge payoff.

Start Early, Plan Smart and Get Us Involved

Succession planning is not a one-time event—it’s a process. The earlier you begin, the more options you’ll have. Working with us —your attorney and valuation expert — will ensure your plan is legally sound, tax-efficient, and aligned with your personal goals.

Motion to Suppress: A Critical Weapon in Criminal Defense

In Ohio criminal cases, one of the most effective legal tools is the motion to suppress evidence. At Lei Jiang LLC, we often file suppression motions when the government’s evidence was obtained in violation of our client’s constitutional rights.

What Is a Motion to Suppress?

A motion to suppress asks the court to exclude certain evidence from trial because it was obtained unlawfully—typically through:

  • An illegal search of your home, phone, or vehicle;
  • An improper arrest without probable cause;
  • A coerced confession during police interrogation.

Under the Fourth Amendment and Ohio Constitution, if law enforcement violated your rights, the resulting evidence must be thrown out—even if it appears to prove guilt.

Why It Matters

We’ve seen criminal cases dismissed entirely because the key evidence was excluded after a successful suppression hearing. These motions can be decisive in cases such as Drug, Gun charges, Fraud or theft investigations, DUI/OVI arrests, etc.

Protecting Your Rights

At Lei Jiang LLC, we analyze every case to determine whether a motion to suppress is warranted. We understand how to challenge police reports, cross-examine officers, and present constitutional arguments in court.

Charged with a Felony in Ohio? Why Early Defense Makes All the Difference

Facing a felony is one of the most serious legal situations a person can encounter. Whether you’re accused of theft, fraud, or a more serious offense, the outcome can affect your freedom, reputation, and future.

At Lei Jiang LLC, we’ve defended many felony cases, and one truth stands out: getting an experienced lawyer involved early changes everything.

Felony charges range from F5 to F1 in Ohio—each carrying potential prison time, steep fines, and lifelong consequences. The earlier we intervene, the better positioned we are to:

  • Challenge questionable evidence
  • Suppress illegal searches or confessions
  • Negotiate with prosecutors
  • Reduce or dismiss charges

In recent felony cases, we’ve helped clients avoid pretrial detention, suppress unlawfully obtained evidence, and even resolve cases without a trial.

We apply the same care and preparation to felony defense as we do in our civil litigation—clear strategy, constant communication, and tireless advocacy.

Don’t wait. Contact Lei Jiang LLC now to protect your rights and future.
