What They Say About Us
A Comprehensive Approach
We combine elder law and estate planning to provide a comprehensive approach to the needs of each client and their family. Planning-wise, we usually recommend trusts to avoid probate proceedings at death and to provide for substitute decision-making in the event of disability.
Ettinger Law Firm addresses both elder law (disability planning) and estate planning (death planning) for older adults. Our strategies help you protect your assets from long-term care costs and provide for your choices to handle your legal, financial and medical decision-making if you are unable to. Estate planning is about avoiding probate court proceedings, and reducing or eliminating capital gains and estate taxes, and keeping your assets in the bloodline.
