I am thoroughly impressed with Waypoint Estate and Business Planning. Every interaction I have experienced with this entire team has been pleasant, informative and expedient. Their personal touch and display of compassion while working with clients in the midst of estate planning and asset protection surpasses all of my expectations.
Many people believe that if they have a will, their estate planning is complete, but there is much more to a solid estate plan. A good plan should be designed to avoid probate, save on estate taxes, protect assets if you need to move into a nursing home, and appoint someone to act for you if you become disabled.
One of the greatest fears of older Americans is that they may end up in a nursing home. This not only means a great loss of personal autonomy, but also a tremendous financial price. Depending on location and level of care, nursing homes cost between $40,000 and $180,000 a year. Most people end up paying for nursing home care out of their savings until they run out.
How do you leave funds for the benefit of the child without causing the child to lose important public benefits?. How do you make sure that your other children are not over-burdened with caring for the disabled sibling, and that any burdens fall relatively evenly among the siblings?. What is fair in terms of distributing your estate between your disabled child and your other children?.
