Estate Planning / Estate Litigation
Estate Planning
There is never a “one size fits all” estate plan. Every client has an individual and distinct estate plan that should be properly drafted to protect your legacy. Documents commonly executed in an estate plan are Health Care Proxies, Power of Attorneys, Living Wills, Last Will and Testaments, and Trusts. Depending upon your goals or how simple or complex your estate plan may be, will determine what documents are best for you.
Medicaid Asset Protection with Estate Planning
Given the high cost of healthcare, the thought of applying for Medicaid is becoming more common than not. Whether it be care at home or care in a facility, the cost should always be evaluated versus the value of your estate. This analysis allows the firm to guide our clients as to whether an asset protection plan should be sought. Our office handles the Medicaid planning process as well as the applications for Community Medicaid and Chronic Care Medicaid.
Estate Litigation
When conflict ensues, our firm represents various individuals involved in the estate or trust administration process. Whether it be contesting a Last Will and Testament, accounting proceedings, disqualifying a fiduciary, disinherited child or family member, voiding a Trust, turnover proceedings, construction proceedings, and more – our firm is here to represent. We take all facets of litigation very seriously and will evaluate any litigious matter on a selective basis to verify that the value of the estate is in fact appropriate for litigation.
