Medicaid & Nursing Home Planning
Why should we plan for this? Because even though you are healthy now, we can’t predict the future. Failure to plan means all of your money, retirement funds and even your home can be lost to long term care expenses. If you are making a plan, this option needs to be included as a critical part of that plan. Even if your old plan did not include long term care and you are facing those expenses, we can help you to protect your estate through Medicaid and nursing home planning.
Don’t outlive your funds you and your spouse saved for retirement or lose your home to expenses of long term care.
Succession Planning
Even getting help on what is considered “simple” estate can be difficult. Succession planning involves preparing a Will or forming a Trust to ensure that your desires for your family and heirs are carried out. Each has its own way of protecting your family. A Will has to follow strict form and signing to be valid. Many times, due to not following the legal requirements, a Will can fail and your wishes will not be followed. Since a Will is not effective until you die, it can be changed. A Trust is a document that allows you to transfer your assets while you are alive and still maintain control as a trustee. Not all trusts are the same and knowledge of how they work helps you in protecting your assets. Upon the death of the last to die, the Trustee will follow your instructions in distributing your estate.
Both a Will and Trust need to be prepared and executed correctly to meet your needs and protect your retirement, cash, assets and estate.
Probate & Estate Administration
In an emotional and upsetting time, it is important to have an attorney who can guide the family in a time of need, helping deal with the legal consequences of losing a loved one. In Louisiana the loss of a loved one is handled one of two ways. Both are called a Succession. The first is Intestate Succession, when a person dies without a properly executed will. The second is Testate Succession, commonly referred to as Probate. This is when the deceased planned and wrote a will with instructions for when they pass away.
In both Intestate and Testate Successions there are requirements of law to establish who is the spouse, who are their heirs (children), who are the legatees (others who receive property) and what the assets and debts of the estate are. With our years of experience, we can help the heirs navigate the confusing legal process to bring the affairs of the deceased to a conclusion and achieve the goal of treating everyone as the deceased planned. Let us help you with our Probate and estate administration services today.
