Questions...we get lots of questions! |
|
Not surprising we do get lots of questions (great questions) about real estate, especially as it pertains to Medicaid. And also not surprising, there is never a "one size fits all" answer. This stuff is complicated! And while there are common issues, each situation is unique...just like each family.
"What if there's a reverse mortgage?" "Can the house be sold, or should it be sold, to pay for long term care expenses?" "How will it affect Medicaid?" Click here to read our blog on this topic.
Our mission is "To Make the Rules Work for the People Who Play by the Rules." Schedule an appointment today and let us know how we can help. Or, call-in this Sunday morning from 7AM - 9AM on Newsradio WOOD 1300 and 106.9 FM. Let's have a conversation! |

Probate refers to the court-supervised process that a decedent’s estate must pass through after a person has died.
For family members or friends who are tasked with winding up the personal affairs of a deceased loved one, the stress, confusion, and frustration that accompanies probate can amplify feelings of grief, loss, and helplessness.

In the Know with The Law Offices of David L. Carrier |
|
 |
The Last Will and Testament is an important legal document which tells the court (upon your death) how you want your probatable estate distributed.
Not all property goes through probate. For example, property held jointly would pass to the survivor without the necessity of being probated in most cases.

Estate Planning Concerns
|
Estate planning isn’t about how much money you have, it’s about protecting what you have for you, during your life and for those you love, after you’re gone. It ensures what you have gets to the people you love, the way you want, when you want.
If you were to die today, are you comfortable everything will be taken care of the way you want?
