Medicaid and Medicaid Planning

Medicaid rules and regulations are complicated. Qualifying for Medicaid benefits involves an analysis of your resources and income. To be eligible for Medicaid, your resources can not exceed a certain level. To help clients achieve Medicaid eligibility, we employ numerous techniques, depending on their specific needs and goals.

Probate and Trust and Estate Administration

What is probate? What does it mean to probate a Will? Probate is the process by which a court approves a Will and supervises the distribution of the assets. Each client may require unique probate or estate administration services, including identifying, collecting and distributing assets and personal belongings, locating family members and or beneficiaries, working through family disputes such as when there is a Will contest, and filing legal papers with the Courts.

Estate Planning For Pets

Pets are frequently overlooked in the aftermath of an accident or death. Sometimes pets are only discovered days after a tragedy. As an introduction to this important topic, we wrote an article about Pet Trusts, a legally enforceable method to provide for the care and maintenance of pets in the event of the owner’s disability and/or death. The response to our article was overwhelming! We discovered that many of our clients and friends had never considered what would happen to their pets if something unexpected happened to them.

100% satisfaction

I take the opportunity to express gratefulness to you and to your fine staff for your diligence, professionalism and graciousness. I highly commend you and your staff for your expertise.

Audrey C. Camden

Estate Planning Client

Thank you and all your staff for the excellent work that was done in drawing up my Living Trust and Laurie’s SNT. You made the process much easier than I anticipated and I appreciate the extra time and patience you showed to me and my nieces Laura and Marianne. I look forward, in the future, to meeting with you when I need legal advice.

Diane

My cousin and I retained Maureen DiTata to help with some estate issues. Maureen couldn’t have been more helpful. She was wonderful, very knowledgeable about the issues we were dealing with. It was so comforting to have someone that was concerned with helping us make the best decisions possible. I feel confident that our situation was handled based on the best available options. I would not hesitate to engage this firm again and have recommended them to friends and other family members. Thanks!
