Estate Planning

Everyone should have one!

Estate planning at any age is important. It will ensure you and your family are covered at all stages of life. An estate plan incorporates all the legal documents you need (Trust, Will, Durable Power of Attorney, Health Care Directive, etc.) should you become incapacitated or die. We will provide a comprehensive, fixed price estate package to protect you and your assets from taxes and governmental interference no matter what stage of life you are in young family, middle-aged, elderly.

Elder Law Planning

Aging gracefully and planning to preserve your family’s estate

With more people living into their 80’s, 90’s and longer, the likelihood of needing long-term care increases. However, waiting until the care is needed requires crisis planning to get Medi-Cal to cover the cost (Medi-Cal is the government program that pays for long-term care in California, but only if you are qualified). You may not qualify for it if you haven’t planned properly.

Medi-Cal Planning

Qualifying for paid long-term care while preserving and protecting your hard-earned assets

Medi-Cal is the government program that pays for long-term care in California for qualified persons. This means despite paying into this system all your working career, you may not qualify for Medi-Cal if you haven’t planned properly. Long-term care can include in-home health care services and long-term nursing home stays. Long-term care is just one component of planning for later in life, but asset protection for you and your loved ones is just as important.

Estate Administration

Caring Guidance when Settling a Loved One’s Estate

We help families through the estate administration process. Whether it is trust administration or probate, we have the experience and knowledge to help you through this process calmly and confidently. We help trustees and executors avoid common mistakes and missed deadlines with straightforward guidance and support.

Probate

Experienced guidance in settling an estate through the California Courts

Unfortunately, if your loved one dies without a trust in place you may have to go through probate in the courts to settle their affairs and distribute assets to the beneficiaries or heirs. The last thing you want to do when you are dealing with loss is to also deal with this long, sometimes controversial, expensive legal process.

Together we can prepare a plan that works best for you and your family or support your estate administration, probate, or Elder Law needs. Contact us today for a consultation at 916-672-2042 or info@breuniglaw.com.
