Devising Appropriate Asset Protection Strategies for Massachusetts Families
You have worked hard for the money you have earned and the assets you own. These assets can be threatened, however, by the costs of health care, state and federal taxes, and even creditors. It is always a good time to implement strategies to protect these assets upon your death or incapacity. An experienced lawyer and law firm can be instrumental in creating an effective plan that will protect you in a way tailored to your needs and contain provisions ensuring your final instructions are respected. The Boston estate planning attorneys of Percy Tedeschi & Associates, P.C., can efficiently and effectively craft your estate plan. Our attorneys and staff take on the full range of issues in estate planning, including:
- Elder law: Our Bristol County elder law attorneys assist clients in the full range of elder law issues, including asset protection, long-term care and Medicaid planning, and estate planning. We will develop plans that protect your assets to the fullest extent under the law. Early planning is the key to preserving your eligibility for Medicaid while preserving your assets.
- Wills: Our law firm is prepared to draft both simple and complex wills that allow for the orderly transfer of your assets upon death.
- Trusts: Trusts are versatile, flexible legal instruments that offer a number of advantages in estate planning. Our lawyers will review your assets and your goals to determine what types of trusts best meet your needs.
- Health care proxies: Health care proxies, or HCPs, give someone the authority to make decisions about your health care in the event you become incapacitated. An HCP can create order and stability during a difficult time.
- Durable power of attorneys: The durable power of attorney, or DPOA, gives someone the ability to make financial decisions on your behalf if you are unable to do so. Our lawyers will help you determine a strong candidate to hold the DPOA. We will then implement your decisions by drafting the appropriate document.
- Complex estate planning: At Percy Tedeschi & Associates, we are ready to address even the most complex types of estate planning goals. We can address business succession planning, special needs planning and other unique interests.
- Competency and legal capacity: Our lawyers have significant experience representing clients engaged in disputes over the competency or legal capacity of an individual.
- Probate of estates: Our law firm has the skill and experience to effectively guide your family through the probate process.
