Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a will if I don't have many assets?
Yes. A will does more than distribute assets—it names guardians for minor children, designates an executor, and can simplify the probate process. Without a will, New York intestacy laws determine who inherits, which may not reflect your wishes.
What is the difference between a will and a trust?
A will takes effect after death and goes through probate court. A trust can take effect immediately, avoids probate, and provides more control over asset distribution. Trusts can also provide asset protection and Medicaid planning benefits. Many people benefit from having both.
How can I protect my assets from nursing home costs?
Medicaid planning strategies can help protect assets while qualifying for nursing home coverage. These may include irrevocable trusts, asset transfers (with careful attention to look-back periods), spousal protections, and other legal strategies. Early planning provides the most options.
