In the event of family disputes or challenges to the estate plan, our attorneys can provide guidance, mediate disputes, and work towards resolutions that protect your interests and maintain family harmony. Changes in family circumstances, such as marriage, divorce, or the birth or adoption of children, can significantly impact estate planning. Considering the significant changes in the federal estate tax laws, most documents drafted before 2008 may contain unnecessary restrictions that can cost the family significantly if not addressed.
Personal Information
Most estate planning attorneys will require that you fill out their estate planning forms and gather estate planning documents before they will meet with you. Once you become an adult, you will need some level of legal documents to take care of who and what you love. When you pass away, your estate goes through the probate process, and the probate court ensures that your executor distributes your assets per your will.

Clear planning not only protects assets but also avoids confusion among heirs, minimizes the risk of probate disputes and ensures that your legacy passes as intended. Working with an elder law attorney ensures that your actions are legal, strategic and tailored to your specific circumstances. In some cases, transferring property to a spouse or adult child can also serve as a protection strategy. Asset protection begins with identifying what you own, how it’s titled, and where the risk lies. Asset protection strategies help shield property, retirement savings and personal investments from these potential threats. Even family conflict, such as divorce or disputes among heirs, can jeopardize your financial legacy if your estate plan lacks safeguards.
The goal of an asset protection plan is to put a degree of legal separation between you and your assets. Bank accounts can be transferred to offshore banks to preserve their value. You may also legally preserve at least a portion of your home equity.

If you transfer all of your assets to a revocable living trust and give your trustee detailed instructions on how to handle your assets if you become disabled, there should be no need for a conservatorship. Joint tenancy ownership of specific assets, with the right of survivorship, can be a cost-effective way to avoid probate on the death of the first joint owner. With regard to real property, you can execute a transfer-on-death deed which allows the death beneficiary named on the deed to automatically assume ownership of the property upon your death, with no need for probate. A revocable living trust avoids the public process of probate, because you collect your assets and transfer them to the trustee before you di
