Help me protect my family - I/we are currently healthy, but I/we want an excellent strategy to be prepared for the real possibility that some day, I/we will be incapacitated.

Long-term care is expensive. When someone in your family needs the services of a nursing facility, the cost of their residential care will be $5,000 a month or more. We have worked with clients to assist them in developing an estate plan with appropriate protections in the event that they are disabled and therefore unable to adequately manage their personal and financial affairs.

We have found that the traditional estate planning attorney has developed documents primarily to serve as a death asset distribution and tax minimization tool. Attorneys trained in the area of ElderLaw understand that fully 50% of the individuals alive today who are 65 years of age or older will spend some period of their lives needing physical and/or custodial care.

It is critical that your estate planning documents be written in such a way that you dictate how you wish to be cared for in this type of situation. Unfortunately, most estate planners spend pages detailing complicated trusts that will be in effect only after your death, and little or no attention is given to your desire for quality of life in the event of a disability of you or a loved one.

Our goal is to counsel you so that you can achieve peace of mind. We will listen to what you have to say, so that we can learn your most important desires. We never elevate our technical skills over our clients’ stated objectives and comfort zone. Non-crisis ElderLaw estate planning is designed to help our clients sleep well at night. We will spend the time it takes to develop a personal relationship with you and to incorporate your values into any of our recommendations.

Please call us for a free confidential discussion of these concerns.
