Wills and Trusts
Wills: A will is the cornerstone of any estate plan, outlining how your assets should be distributed after your passing. At Longwell Legal, we help you craft a will that reflects your unique wishes and ensures that your loved ones are protected.
Trusts: Trusts can offer more control over how and when your assets are distributed. We can assist you in setting up revocable or irrevocable trusts, special needs trusts, Medicaid asset protection trusts, and other types of trusts that suit your estate planning goals.
Medicaid Asset Protection Trusts (MAPTs)
A Medicaid Asset Protection Trust (MAPT) is a specialized trust designed to protect your assets from being counted toward Medicaid eligibility. This type of trust allows you to transfer assets out of your name while retaining some control and use of them, ensuring that you can qualify for Medicaid benefits if needed, without having to spend down your assets on long-term care.
Probate and Estate Administration
Navigating probate can be complex and time-consuming. Our experienced team guide your loved ones through the probate process, ensuring that your estate is administered efficiently and in accordance with your wishes.
Power of Attorney
Designating a power of attorney allows someone you trust to make financial and medical decisions on your behalf if you become incapacitated. We help you choose the right person and outline the scope of their authority.
Healthcare Directives
A healthcare directive, or living will, allows you to specify your wishes regarding medical treatment in case you cannot communicate them yourself. We ensure that your healthcare directives are clear and legally binding.
Asset Protection
Protecting your assets from potential creditors, lawsuits, or other risks is a crucial aspect of estate planning. We provide strategies to shield your assets, ensuring they are preserved for future generations.
