ELDER LAW
Rather than being defined by
technical legal distinctions, elder law is defined by the client to be served.
In other words, we handle a range of issues for a specific type of
client -- seniors. We focus on the legal needs of the elderly, and work with
a variety of legal tools and techniques to meet the goals and objectives of the
older client.
Under this holistic approach, we
handle general estate planning issues and counsel clients about planning for
incapacity with alternative decision making documents. We also assist in
planning for possible long-term care needs, including nursing home care.
Locating the appropriate type of care, coordinating private and public resources
to finance the cost of care, and working to ensure the client's right to quality
care are all part of our elder law practice.
