Wills & Trusts

Estate planning is necessary to properly honor your wishes after death. Wills and Trusts serve different purposes, but often the words are interchanged.

Powers of Attorney

Anyone can become incapacitated at any time. Consulting with a lawyer about the different types of powers of attorney and advanced planning will help protect you in that situation.

Irrevocable Trusts

An irrevocable trust can help protect your assets for the future. However, there can be pitfalls when placing assets into a trust which is not revocable.

Special Needs Trusts

What is the purpose of a Supplemental Needs Trust? To balance the eligibility of a person receiving benefits from government programs while keeping other family resources protected. 

Nursing Home Planning

There is a lot to plan and prepare for when considering your future long-term care needs, including being prepared for potentially entering a nursing home. It’s a complicated process. We can help. 

Medicaid Asset Protection

If you’re considering Medicaid to assist with paying for the nursing home but are worried about having too many assets, we can assist you before and during your Medicaid application process.

Veteran’s Benefits

A lawyer accredited through the Department of Veterans Affairs can discuss with you how pension programs developed for seniors may assist with your long-term care needs.

Probate

It is essential to determine whether probate is required when dealing with the property of a deceased family member and must occur within one year of a person’s death.

Business Law

Protect your business by setting up your ownership documents, preparing contracts that safeguard your interests, or planning for the sale or transition of your business.

Real Estate

Real estate matters often require help from a lawyer. Documents may need to be prepared for selling or leasing properties and to fix ownership issues or usage rights.

Our Mission is to inspire, educate and motivate our clients to control their future by empowering them to make the best decisions for their businesses and their families resulting in peace of mind.
