Safeguarding Real Estate TransactionsPlanning Your Future With Confidence
No one likes to think about a day when they can no longer make decisions or care for themselves, but you will be better positioned to deal with whatever the future brings if you know your options and you make plans now. Once you have a plan in place, it provides peace of mind knowing that your wishes will be carried out.
One of our clients’ main concerns is protecting assets in the event that they or a loved one need to enter a nursing home. Nursing home care is expensive, and the fact is that it’s hard to predict if, or when, you will need that type of care, but there are steps that you can take to protect your assets. At Barna Law, we help you plan for uncertainty, whether planning ahead or planning when you are already in the crisis.

You Need More Than A Will
Elder law deals with legal issues faced by those over 65. These issues can also affect an individual’s family, friends, and caretakers. This can include planning for end-of-life, planning to reduce inheritance and end-of-life taxes, and planning to protect a spouse or family members if someone needs a nursing home. An elder law attorney like those at Barna Law can make sure you have the legal details in place to carry out your wishes.
Many people think of a Will when they talk about estate planning, but there is more to it than one document. The more complex your situation and the more assets you have, the more important it is to work with an attorney who understands all aspects of the estate-planning process. At Barna Law, we have attorneys who devote their practice to estate planning and elder law and who are dedicated to helping our clients plan for their future.
