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.

What do I need to know about probate, Wills and trusts?

Probate is both time consuming and costly and the process is quite different from the administration of a trust. A Will merely disposes of your assets after your death. A trust can be crafted to afford you the opportunity to manage your assets while you are alive and able and, while a Will makes no provision if you become incapacitated, a trust usually directs who will manage the property and how. Additionally, probate documents filed in court are a matter of public record whereas the disposition of trust assets can be entirely private.

Estate Planning

You spent a lifetime building it. Work with our Long Island estate planning attorneys to protect it.

Do you have an estate plan? If you already have an estate plan, have you reviewed it with an estate attorney within the last three years?

Our Garden City, NY estate planning attorneys offer a highly professional, yet completely personal approach to the estate planning needs of clients on Long Island, in New York City and beyond. We help clients formulate effective estate planning strategies and put a plan in place when they do not have one. We also update and revise existing estate plans for clients as needs and life situations change over time.

Wills and Living Wills

A Last Will and Testament, known simply as a Will, is a formal, legal document, governed by strict statutory requirements. It directs how a deceased person’s property and assets will be legally distributed to named individuals and entities.

Only an experienced estate planning law firm can truly understand your unique situation and draft a Will that clearly states your intentions. We urge you to contact our Garden City, NY estate planning law firm at 516-747-3200. We look forward to assisting you.

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.

Some of the Medicaid planning and Medicaid strategies that we employ include:

Estate planning and asset protection planning
Creation of irrevocable income-only trusts
Preparation of promissory notes and loans
Gifting strategies and asset transfers
Prepayment of specific expenditures that are considered exempt by Medicaid

And much more
