Is your existing estate plan obsolete?

Is your existing estate plan obsolete? -

I have heard it said that “action today can prevent a crisis tomorrow.” The evil of procrastination is especially common when it comes to estate planning. Far too many procrastinate by never actually putting an estate plan into place. Others may demonstrate uncommon wisdom and foresight by worki...

August 26, 2020 Medicaid Planning Webinar - The Artis Law Firm

Too many of us tempt fate by not taking action to prepare for our future and the future of those that we love. Many wait until some catastrophe occurs that reminds us of our mortality. Some wait until they receive bad news from their medical doctor. Whether from a stroke or cancer or a catastrophic accident, we simply cannot know the timing of fate. Thus, though there may never be a good time to prepare an estate plan, waiting until something serious happens is definitely not a good time. Rather, it is far better to take advantage of the time when the time is available.

Investing the time and money to prepare an estate plan is an expression of wisdom and of love. It reflects wise stewards who care enough for their family and loved ones to take the appropriate measures to protect the financial and life legacy for which they’ve worked so hard and so long, so that upon their passing, their legacy lives on through the generations.

Please join me today at 4pm PST for an Online Seminar to learn how to use simple legal strategies to help make your wishes known, keep peace in the family, and ensure that life is as easy as possible for you and for your loved ones, no matter what happens.

Medicaid Recovery?!? - The Artis Law Firm

Medicaid Recovery?!?

Did you know that under federal law, after a Medicaid recipient dies, the state is required to recover whatever benefits it paid for that person’s care from the recipient’s estate? The program that provides health care to millions of Americans isn’t free. The government expects to be repaid and will seize houses and other assets after those recipients die in order to satisfy the debt.

Learn how to prevent such a heartbreaking outcome at my upcoming free online Seminar next Tuesday, June 30 at 3pm.

Did you know that some states (including California) put liens on the homes of people who enroll with Medicaid to secure the state’s interest in their property down the road?

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services says it right on their own website: “When home equity becomes part of the estate, it is subject to Medicaid estate recovery. The survivors may either sell the home and use the proceeds to satisfy the Medicaid claim or, if they wish to keep the home in the family, satisfy the claim with their own personal funds.”

Reserve your spot at my free online Seminar next Tuesday, where you’ll learn how you can:

(1) plan ahead so you can quickly qualify for Medi-Cal should the need arise without having to wait till you go broke, and

(2) protect your home, your assets and your estate so that it will pass to your loved ones and not get taken by Medicaid after you’re gone.
