Elder Law and Estate Planning Attorney

Melville, Long Island Law Firm

 

Elder Law is becoming increasingly important to Long Island’s aging population. It addresses the concerns of the elderly and their families, should a person become disabled or face catastrophic medical expenses. It includes planning and making applications for Medicaid benefits to cover the cost of long-term medical care. It also includes guardianships for those persons no longer able to make their own decisions about medical needs or management of their assets.

Estate Planning allows seniors to consider how their families will deal with their affairs after their passing. Planning for the future enables individuals to impact the lives of loved ones by directing how their property and assets should be distributed upon their death. In cases where these issues are not addressed in advance, your estate can be rendered to those you would not have chosen by New York State intestacy laws.

Melville Elder Law attorney Brian Andrew Tully helps elderly clients and their families deal with the legal issues involved in growing older. He works alongside seniors throughout Nassau and Suffolk Counties, Long Island, New York to develop a comprehensive plan to protect each individual’s rights and assets. Brian can assist with Durable Powers of Attorney, Health Care Proxies and Living Wills and Last Wills & Testaments.
