What Happens when Someone Dies Without Leaving a Will or a TrustT...

06/10/2026

Я искренне верю, что каждая семья заслуживает защиты, уверенности и спокойствия за свое будущее. 🏡

Вот уже почти 30 лет я помогаю семьям сохранять нажитое, защищать свои активы и создавать надежный план для будущих поколений. Для меня это не просто документы — это забота о ваших близких, сохранение семейного наследия и уверенность в том, что ваши пожелания будут исполнены.

Если вы все еще откладываете составление завещания или траста, не ждите кризиса. Лучшее время защитить свою семью — сегодня.

— Инна Ферштейн

The New York estate tax exemption for 2026 is $7,350,000 per individual, the amount a person can pass to his beneficiaries before any New York State estate tax is owed. But New York has two features that make its estate tax unusually harsh: the estate tax “cliff,” which can tax the entire estate (not just the excess) once an estate exceeds 105% of the exemption, and the absence of spousal portability, which means a married couple can lose one spouse’s entire exemption without proper planning. Learn more about the 2026 exemption, how the cliff works, why portability matters, and the strategies families use to protect their assets.

🛑 Why You Can Lose Medicaid in New York Over Income?

In New York, you may lose Medicaid eligibility if income or resources exceed the allowed limits.

Medicaid uses two tests: an income test and a resource test. If income is too high, a pooled income trust may be needed. If resources are too high, a separate Medicaid planning strategy may be required. That is why it is important not to wait until care is urgently needed.

For New York families, a Medicaid planning mistake can mean losing home care, delaying eligibility, and creating financial pressure for relatives. It is important to review income, bank accounts, IRA, life insurance, pension plans, and primary residence value in advance

Call the Law Office of Inna Fershteyn to review Medicaid eligibility before it becomes too late.

🛑 Can a Felon Be Your Trustee in New York?

In New York, a person with a criminal conviction may be able to serve as your trustee, but the real question is not only whether the law allows it.

A trustee manages and distributes your assets, so the key issue is whether you trust that person with this level of responsibility. A conviction does not always mean an automatic disqualification, but choosing a trustee requires careful judgment

To find out who can be the best trustee for your trust...
