Adams County Elder Law Attorney

Serving All Generations Of Your Family

Many legal needs accompany the aging process. For example, your estate plan may need to be updated or expanded to keep up with life's transitions. You should ensure that you have the proper tools in place to prepare for the possibility of incapacity. Additionally, long-term care planning is essential to preserving your quality of life and making sure that your finances are in order.

At Tolison & Williams, Attorneys at Law, LLC, I am committed to serving all generations of your family, including meeting the legal needs of seniors. I provide compassionate yet savvy legal guidance to help families plan ahead. My goal is to help you come away with peace of mind, knowing all your affairs are in order.

Compassionate And Sensitive Legal Guidance Throughout Brighton

I provide experienced legal guidance in all areas of elder law, including:

• Estate planning: It is important to have a comprehensive estate plan in place at any stage of life. I can help you develop and implement a customized will or trust to serve as the foundation of your estate plan. I will also help you plan for incapacity through a power of attorney and living will.
• Long-term care planning: The costs of nursing home care and assisted living have skyrocketed in recent years. To understand and plan for long-term care, you must plan well in advance and take the time to learn about Medicare and Medicaid eligibility issues and coverage. At Tolison & Williams, Attorneys at Law, LLC, I help you understand and navigate the various processes and programs associated with long-term care, giving you and your loved ones peace of mind in very stressful times.
• Guardianships and conservatorships: When an individual is mentally incapacitated, a court proceeding may be required to appoint a guardian and/or conservator to manage that individual's personal and/or financial affairs. At Tolison & Williams, LLC, I represent applying and appointed guardians and conservators to help them fulfill their fiduciary obligations and comply with other legal requirements.
• Administration of final affairs — probate and trust settlement: The settlement of a decedent's final affairs, whether through the probate process and/or through a private trust settlement, can be a complicated process. I represent personal representatives, trustees, heirs and beneficiaries and work to guide my clients through these emotional and technical cases.

In any type of elder law matter, it is important to carefully consider whom you choose as your attorney. At Tolison & Williams, LLC, I am sensitive to the complicated and often emotional issues involved in this area of law. I have extensive experience working with seniors and individuals with special needs and their families. Both of our lawyers share a commitment to making a positive impact on clients' lives and futures.
