Protect Your Loved Ones

From estate planning and administration to powers of attorney and guardianship, we’ve got you covered with everything you might need.

Long Term Care Planning

Planning for the long-term care of a loved one can be challenging because it can be so unpredictable and expensive. Cherewka Law attorneys can review all of the options that are open to you and your family in a timely and reliable manner so that you can be sure your loved ones are taken care of.

Estate Planning

It’s important that you create an effective estate plan to protect your family’s future after you have passed. Putting the right legal structures in place before critical moments can ensure that your wishes are followed and that your assets are distributed properly to your loved ones after death.

Power of Attorney

Having a power of attorney in place ensures that crucial financial issues can be dealt with in a timely and proper manner. Elderly individuals will often want to put a power of attorney in place to allow their adult children to handle financial issues in case of incapacity due to Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, or other circumstances.

Medicaid & Asset Protection Planning

Due to the fact that Medicaid is a means-tested program, people entering the care of a nursing home will typically have to pay for care themselves until they have “spent down” enough assets to qualify for Medicaid. Our attorneys can help you find ways to preserve your well-earned assets while still qualifying for these public benefits.

Estate Administration

Perhaps you have been left as the executor of a deceased loved one’s estate or trustee of a trust. This means that you have important legal responsibilities to attend to in the circumstance of death. Our attorneys can help you make sure that you carry out your duties in adherence to the law and the wishes of your loved one.

Guardianship

If a loved one becomes unable to handle their own affairs due to medical conditions or other circumstances, and there is no power of attorney in place, then guardianship may be the necessary action. In a guardianship proceeding, the court appoints an individual to act on behalf of the incapacitated person with regards to any financial or medical matters.
