While the golden years are supposed to be filled with the joys of retirement, grandchildren, and travel, they are seldomly enjoyed without various other complexities that individuals encounter as they age including deteriorating health, financial concerns and family disputes. To meet these challenges, a unique area of law - elder law has taken on greater value to millions of aging Americans and their caregivers.
While nobody wants to think about death or disability, establishing an estate plan is one of the most important steps you can take to protect yourself and your loved ones. Proper estate planning not only puts you in charge of your finances, it can also spare your loved ones of the expense, delay and frustration associated with managing your affairs when you pass away or become disabled.
When a loved one passes away, his or her estate often goes through a court-managed process called probate or estate administration where the assets of the deceased are managed and distributed. If your loved-one owned his or her assets through a well drafted and properly funded living trust, it is likely that no court-managed administration is necessary, though the successor trustee needs to administer the distribution of the deceased's assets.
Andrew Byers' elder law practice focuses on the legal needs of older clients and their families, and works with a variety of legal tools and techniques to meet the goals and objectives of the older client. Under this holistic approach, I handle estate and longevity planning issues and counsel clients about planning for incapacity with alternative decision making documents.
My family has worked with Andrew Byers for over 10 years. He obtained VA benefits for my mother when she lived in assisted living. When my mother moved into a nursing home he worked with Medicaid for benefits for our mother. He was very professional. We are very pleased with how Andrew handled ou. I would definitely recommend attorney Andrew Byers for elder care planning and estate planning.

The AARP Bulletin had an article about finding an elder care lawyer. I needed to update my current Last Will and so one of the websites specifically listed lawyers in my area. I narrowed it down to where I live and read Andrew Byers' information. We spoke on the phone during which he was professional, succinct . Andrew also followed through on everything. We set up an appointment and I now have peace of mind as I near retirement. I would highly recommend Andrew Byers due to his being organized and the end product being above my expectations.

Our father was wrapping up our mother's estate in 2017 when he passed just a few months after learning about his illness. We reached out to Andrew, who immediately agreed to meet with my sister, brother, and me to discuss the steps we would need to take following his passing, as well as the steps to close my father's estate eventually. He walked us through the process, was upfront about the costs, and provided us with the information we needed to bring everything to the best conclusion possible. We are grateful for his time, flexibility, and willingness to educate us about the steps we would need

Andrew’s depth of knowledge regarding applying for VA benefits for my mom as a spouse of a serviceman was what sealed the deal. He follows courtcases closely on the subject to best advise when and how to apply to keep up with the many recent changes. He also did the needed POAs and trust. He came out promptly to see my mom to get the ball rolling. He is also quite competitive and certainly reasonable with his pricing.

I wanted a Living Will so my children would know my wishes and so they would receive my possessions with having to go to probate court. Andrew Byers gave me much more than just a Will. A Will and Testament, a Live Will, a Patient Advocate Designation and other services that I do not know the names for. He provided me with a peace of mind that I am ready and that my children will get there inheritance with less hassle, instead of the government.

Mr. Byers help me and my family when our mother entered elder care and hospice. After she passed, we had a deed issue with her house. He was able to resolve that too.

A year or so later my brother passed away. Mr. Byers helped guide us through Probate to settle his estate.

Mr. Byers is very knowledgeable in his area of expertise. I highly recommend him and will use him again.

We hired Mr. Byers for our estate planning and were very satisfied. When my husband became disabled, Mr. Byers handled everything required to get him placed in a nursing home. This is a very involved and difficult process and I could not have accomplished what we needed without him. Andrew Byers is efficient, professional, honest and kind. I highly recommend him to anyone who needs an elder law attorney.

€œOur mother is in her 90’s and fell. In addition to a break, she had several complications follow the initial surgery. We had several concerns we felt needed to be dealt with as soon as it became evident this was not going to be a ‘quick fix’ situation. Who do you turn to? In this instance, we felt we needed to speak with an attorney – one who was familiar with concerns like ours and could guide us. Andrew Byers was highly recommended to us and we made the first appointment to see him. He was more than accommodating and knew more about elder law than I had ever heard come from a single
