Elder Law
Elder Law covers a broad range of legal matters, including the preparation of estate documents such as a Will, a Trust, a Power of Attorney, an Advance Health Care Directive, and a Nomination of Conservator; filing to probate a Will and to appoint a Personal Representative for a decedent's estate; petitioning the court to appoint a guardian or a conservator for an incapacitated person; Medicaid consultations; and probate and trust litigation.
Proactively addressing these issues and obtaining the appropriate legal documents can help reduce or even eliminate the time, expense and stress that can ensue between family members down the road. It is much better to prevent a forest fire, than try to put one out later.
Each of these legal matters are more fully discussed under their respective headings.
