Trusted Elder Law Attorneys
What is Elder Law
Traditional estate planning transitions to elder law when adult children (or other family and friends) begin caring for their aging parents or family members. Elder law includes creating or updating or untangling estate plans, establishing conservatorships, planning for Medi-Cal and VA Aid and Attendance benefits, preventing elder abuse, long-term care planning and providing counseling to families about aging.
Elder Law is Not Just for the Elderly
Enjoying the company of our loved ones as they age can be a tremendous blessing. At the same time, when adult children become caregivers, it can become exceedingly challenging to balance the needs of an aging parent or family member while respecting their dignity, best interests and wishes. Our elder law services help and guide you through these potentially difficult considerations. Many elder law issues can be prevented by having a comprehensive and up-to-date estate plan and getting compassionate counseling for you and your family.
Expert Knowledge Is Important for Your Peace of Mind
