Many people delay estate planning because they believe it’s only for the wealthy, the elderly, or those with complex assets. Unfortunately, these misconceptions can lead to costly and painful consequences for loved ones left behind, or even for you while you are still alive. Estate planning is about far more than just distributing assets; it’s about protecting your family, your wishes, and your legacy. Below are some of the most common myths about estate planning and the facts that debunk them. Read more here: https://tinyurl.com/5av34w9v

In estate planning, there is a surprisingly common misstep that can have costly consequences for some families. A recent Wall Street Journal article highlighted this error: the failure to file an estate tax return upon the death of the first spouse in a married couple, even when no federal estate tax is due. Neglecting this step can cause the surviving spouse to forfeit a valuable benefit known as estate tax portability. Read more here: https://tinyurl.com/5xdrxyws

When your child turns 18, something changes that most families don’t anticipate: you lose automatic access to their medical records and the ability to make financial or medical decisions on their behalf. No matter how much college tuition you’re paying or how closely you manage their day-to-day life, they are now a legal adult, and the law treats them as one.

Medicaid Asset Protection Trusts --
Part I: What They Are and Why You Need One

A Medicaid Asset Protection Trust, referred to as a “MAPT”, is a legal tool that protects your estate against financially-ruinous long-term care costs. Did you know that nursing homes cost $180,000 a year and that Medicare and health insurance DON’T PAY? Medicaid does – AFTER you (and your spouse) are broke. But with a properly-drafted MAPT (not all MAPTS are created equal) you and your loved ones can retain use of and control over your estate and still later qualify for Medicaid to pay for long-term care.

Join the lawyers at Vasiliadis Pappas Associates for a FREE one-hour webinar on what a Medicaid Asset Protection Trust is and why you should include it as part of your estate plan.

You Will Learn:

*Benefits of a properly-drafted MAPT
*How to set up and operate a MAPT
*Which assets to include in your MAPT – and which ones not to
*And more!

For seniors and their families, hiring a home care service can support independence for the older adult while reducing stress on the family unit. A home carer can assist with activities of daily living (ADLs), like bathing, dressing, toileting, feeding, and ambulating, and with every-day task independent activities of daily living (IADLs) such as preparing meals, housekeeping, medication management, and transportation to and from appointments and outings. Skilled caregivers who are qualified nurses can also provide medical care for those with more complex medical needs. Read more here: https://tinyurl.com/cp36xeah
