Estate Planning

Our attorneys work closely with individuals and families to devise estate plans that accurately reflect clients’ assets and their wishes for property division or asset distribution and the special needs of loved ones. This is always approached from a standpoint of diminishing or eliminating federal and state estate and inheritance taxes, wherever applicable. In addition, our firm looks at Medicaid issues to determine eligibility and to ensure that assets are distributed in accordance with Medicare and Medicaid guidelines, preserving assets within the law.

Guardianships

If a family member is disabled, a minor or has special needs and is unable to make financial decisions independently, our firm will assist you in establishing guardianships. Moreover, we handle conservatorships and advise clients on the best ways to ensure that younger beneficiaries manage inherited money wisely.

Advance Health Care Directives

Make sure that you have control over end-of-life medical decisions by creating a durable power of attorney for health care, and a living will. By clearly delineating your wishes, you can help family members better understand your wishes and avoid burdening your family with making difficult medical decisions in the future.

If you are considering devising or revising a will or need legal assistance in making financial arrangements for a family member who cannot do so on his or her own, the time to act is now.
