We take pride and great satisfaction in protecting and preserving a client’s assets and income.
We have extensive experience and expertise in all aspects of asset protection, including the protection of assets for a minor, a spendthrift, a disabled person on SSI, SSDI, Medi-Cal and/or Medicaid and a person who has long-term care needs occasioned by an accident, an incapacitating illness and that is otherwise uncovered by other health insurance.
For younger families, we can help you plan for the future care of your children in the event of an untimely death, or assist you with the legal problems brought about by an incapacitated, disabled or deceased parent or grandparent whose estate plan was ignored, nonexistent or improperly set up.
“Thank you for taking over my case and getting me all the help to make my future a little ‘richer’. You did a great job and I felt like I was working with a friend. For all your time and patience, I truly thank you.”
– S. (client)
