Islandia

For over three decades, Ettinger Law Firm has served New York's aging population by helping them make sure their families, home and life savings are secure. Our attorneys' primary focus is elder law estate planning. Our Islandia office welcomes you to learn more today and trust our professionals to guide you through some of the most important decisions of your life.

We have been working with people like you since 1991, giving us unique insights into the workings of local probate courts. Our services cover everything you may need to secure your future for your loved ones while avoiding excess fees and taxes from capital gains, legal proceedings and estate taxes.

Your estate comprises everything you own, from your home and car to bank accounts, jewelry and antiques. An estate plan allows you to take back control from the courts and government, giving it back to yourself and your loved ones.

Medicaid eligibility is determined through a number of criteria, including something called the “look-back” period. Ettinger Law Firm can help you prepare to meet eligibility requirements for your long-term care needs and avoid losing coverage with specialized strategies.

Make sure your assets get distributed to family, loved ones, charities and others based on your guidance by working with Ettinger Law Firm to establish a will that answers every question your legacy may leave.

Another way of distributing your assets is through establishing trusts. Our local attorneys in Islandia have experience establishing a range of trusts, including:

• Living Trusts
• Inheritance Protection Trusts
