Services
As the average life span continues to increase, so does the need for elder law. This unique area of law focuses on meeting the goals and objectives of older clients and their families by using a variety of legal tools and techniques. Because state and federal laws and regulations are increasingly complex, legal matters affecting the older client and the disabled are constantly changing and confusing.
Your estate includes the property you own at your death. Your estate plan is a blueprint of how you want your financial and personal affairs handled while you are alive. If you fail to plan for your estate, a plan will be made for you. There are "default" plans for making decisions during your life when you are no longer able to do so and for making decisions about how your estate will be distributed at your death.
An arrangement whereby a court appoints a person to take care of another person or that person's property because the person cannot legally take care of him or herself. Guardianship is the "default" plan. If you fail to plan in advance for how decisions will be made if you are incapacitated or incompetent, the court will appoint decision makers for you.
