Concentrating our practice in "Aging in Place" planning, estate planning, elderlaw, succession planning, asset protection, wills, trusts, and probate, we can tailor a plan for an individual, family, or business. The firm is comprised of an attorney working with several paralegals and other support staff.
There are numerous goals and objectives in estate and financial planning that can only, or best, be obtained with a revocable trust. A simple Last Will and Testament is, in many ways, an antique. For most people living in the twenty-first century, the Will can accomplish few, if any, of their estate planning goals.
Studies show that older Americans prefer to stay in their own homes if possible. While many consider in-home care preferable to institutional care, there are public benefits and legal considerations, some of which may be quite unexpected. Why, then do most estate plans fail to even mention, let alone resolve, this most important objective?
The death or serious incapacity of a loved one is a traumatic event. Dealing with the event, your own feelings, and the feelings and needs of your family can be stressful, and can result in overlooked details and additional confusion. If you are alone, telephone a friend who can spend the next few hours with you.
Perhaps the best reason for every American to consider comprehensive estate planning is to reduce and control, to the extent possible, the threat of guardianship. The threat of guardianship is so profound that twice, within the past ten years, the United States Senate has conducted hearings exposing the systems of guardianship and conservatorship as threats to seniors, their liberties, their rights, and their families.
