When a family member has been diagnosed with a serious illness or has trouble completing activities of daily living, the time comes to discuss potential avenues to pay for at-home care, or nursing home care. Long term care planning allows you to pay for the care your loved one needs and deserves, while preserving and protecting your loved one's assets.
Although most people don't think about at-home care or nursing home care until reaching a certain age, we strongly urge people of all ages to consider long term care planning for their future, and the future of their loved ones. Without a will, your estate must go through probate, leaving it up to the court to determine how your assets should be distributed.

I approached the Herndon Law team around October 2019. For a contested battle between a family member and myself for guardianship of my mother. Herndon Law did a amazing job in actually helping in more than one way. Thanks to this strong legal team I am now a co-guardian for my mother.
I want to thank them all for their hard work and efforts that they put forth, but also the commanding presence they led through the whole case. From day one Herndon Law was ten days ahead of their competition. It says alot when a big city lawyer takes the wind out of the sail of a "scratch your back" small town
