What Is Elder Law?

Elder law encompasses a broad area of law that addresses the legal issues faced by older adults. While estate planning is a crucial component, elder law goes beyond that to include health care decisions, end-of-life decisions, financial planning, guardianship decisions, and preventing elder abuse and neglect.

Health Care Decisions

One of the important aspects of elder law is ensuring that your healthcare decisions are honored and respected. We can assist you in drafting durable powers of attorney and health care documents that clearly outline your wishes for medical treatment and appoint a trusted individual to make decisions on your behalf if you become incapacitated. Get started today.

End-of-Life Decisions

Planning for end-of-life decisions is a challenging but necessary part of elder law. Our experienced team can help you create living wills and comprehensive plans for your medical care that ensure your wishes are followed and alleviate the burden on your loved ones during a difficult time.

Estate Planning

Estate planning is an essential part of making sure that your future is secure and that your loved ones are taken care of. Our services provide the necessary tools to create wills, revocable living trusts, irrevocable trusts, and more that help protect your assets and ensure that your wishes are followed. With a properly crafted estate plan, you can replace the default distribution of your estate under Virginia's laws of intestacy with your own plan. This will provide you with peace of mind that your estate will be handled according to your wishes.

Financial Planning

Financial planning is crucial for maintaining financial security during your senior years. Our team can help you develop a comprehensive financial plan that takes into account your unique circumstances, long-term care needs, and financial goals. We can guide you in making informed decisions about retirement accounts, long-term care insurance, Medicaid, and other financial matters. Learn more about how we can help today.

Whether you are seeking guardianship for yourself or a loved one, we are here to provide the necessary support and expertise. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to us today.
