We listen to the needs of our clients and provide information, advice and most importantly, support.
Our practice is dedicated to assisting clients with estate planning and providing long-term care planning solutions. There’s a frequent misconception that it’s too late to start planning when the reality is that it is rarely too late. As an experienced elder law attorney, Kristen Armstrong works within the law to assist our clients in maximizing benefits and reducing costs.
Our long-term care planning techniques include Medicaid Crisis Care Planning, Asset Protection Planning, and Division of Assets Planning for the healthy spouse who remains living at home within the community, as well as the sick spouse who lives within a care facility. Our comprehensive plans look at the immediate care costs and needs, as well as the future estate planning goals of our clients. Long-term care planning means protecting for your future as well as future generations.
Our estate planning techniques include advice regarding probate avoidance, asset structuring necessary to help clients ensure their goals are met, and well-rounded documents to ensure their plans can be maintained even if in the event of incapacity, disability, or death. We want to prepare a plan for you that reflects your values and how you want your legacy to be remembered and passed down among your heirs and beneficiaries. Your estate plan speaks to future generations.
