The Importance of Estate Planning
Estate planning may seem like an unpleasant task, but having a plan in place helps ensure the best possible future for your family. Using a variety of legal tools like wills and trusts, we can help you protect your assets from the strain of expensive medical bills and lawsuit settlements. We can also help you with estate tax planning and employ asset protection strategies.
If you have young children, it is very important that you prepare for their future care, should anything happen. An estate plan will allow you to select a guardian and provide for your children's well-being. We can help you navigate the process of selecting a guardian and otherwise establishing guardianship.
In addition to planning for the care of others, we can help you prepare for your own medical needs. Healthcare is expensive, and you need to be prepared to handle these costs. We can help you obtain the proper insurance to cover your healthcare needs or assist you with Medicaid planning.
Other medical planning tools to consider are advance directives, which allow you to specify the medical care you'd like in case you become unable to give these directions yourself. We can help you establish a durable power of attorney, health care proxies, and other documents in case of incapacity.
Estate Administration Guidance in Long Island
Did you know that serving as the executor or administrator of an estate requires you to sort out the taxes and debts of your late loved one? If you have been selected as an executor in a will or have been appointed as an administrator by the Surrogate's Court, we can help you administer the estate according to the law. The probate process can be time consuming and difficult, but we can explain your rights and obligations and provide you with knowledgeable legal guidance. From collecting the assets to notifying creditors to distributing property, we can walk you through the entire estate administration process. Whether you are going through formal probate and need the Surrogate's Court's approval for every matter or if your late loved one's estate is passing through small-estate proceedings, we can help you. We can also represent you if you need help with a probate or estate litigation matter.
