Probate
Guardianship
Medicaid
Probate is the official process by which an estate gets settled under the supervision of the court. Usually, a person is named as the Executor or Personal Representative as set forth in a deceased persons Will and appointed by the court. Once appointed by the court, this person has legal authority to administer the estate, pay bills, taxes and ultimately distribute assets to the heirs and beneficiaries.
Medicaid
Guardianship
Medicaid
Medicaid is a complex series of benefits programs established by the federal government and administered by each state for its citizens. While there are several different elements under the umbrella of Medicaid, the Medicaid Long-Term Care program is one that many seniors rely on for help when they require ongoing care. At the Elder Law & Estate Planning Center, we help aging individuals plan, apply, and qualify for Medicaid benefits while protecting and preserving assets for their descendants.

Revocable Living Trusts
A revocable trust is a trust that can be modified or revoked at any time during the lifetime of the trust's creator. Assets are transferred into the name of the trust. Unlike a Will, which much pass through the probate process, a revocable living trust does not require the involvement of the court in most cases. There are many types of revocable trusts and we can help you choose the right one for your unique situation.

Special needs trusts, also called supplemental needs trusts, allow heirs or beneficiaries with special needs to receive inheritances without jeopardizing their eligibility for government benefit programs like Medicaid and Social Security Disability Income (SSDI). Like all trusts, special needs trusts are financial arrangements that place the assets of the trust's creator under the care of a trustee for the benefit of named beneficiaries.
