Divorce
Despite these allowances for income and assets, nursing care may still deplete too large a percentage of a couple's assets, leaving feeling threatened by poverty. Early asset distribution and increasing equity in exempt assets are typical responses to these concerns. The purchase of long-term health care insurance is another. Still others opt for divorce. Obviously this is not a popular alternative due to the emotional turmoil it causes for all parties concerned. However, where incapacity is imminent or has occurred, it is an option that merits consideration. If the couple proceeds with an uncontested divorce, the community spouse by agreement can retain a larger portion of the couple's assets, without concern for the applicability of asset transfer restrictions. The institutionalized spouse also can decline alimony or other support.

Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
The maximum amount of assets that may be protected in a shelter is determined by Congress, and is increased annually to reflect rising costs of living. In addition to this protection of assets for the benefit of the community spouse, a monthly income may likewise be retained. Allowances may also be made for dependents (including children, parents, or siblings) who are living with the community spouse. Because these amounts increase annually and may vary from state to state, it would be advisable to contact an attorney early in the estate planning process to ensure that the amount of the client's income and assets protected will be optimized.
Wills
Craig Westfall has been preparing will and trust and handling probate matters for clients for over 30 years. He has the knowledge and experience to represent your interests.
Trusts
As part of your estate plan, you may wish to consider establishing a revocable living trust. A revocable living trust typically has the following six characteristics...
Power of Attorney
You may believe that your living will is sufficient for all of your health care planning needs. However, a living will addresses only the withdrawal of life support. It does not address treatment, medication, and residential placement. The durable power of attorney for health care is a more comprehensive planning method for health care contingencies. Following is a brief explanation of these advance directives.
Probate

Bankruptcy
Limitations on availability: There are no monetary limitations. However, Chapter 7 bankruptcy is not available if the debtor has been discharged in bankruptcy within the past six years.
Foreclosure
You should also check the contract for "pay if paid" and "pay when paid" provisions. In Illinois, "pay when paid" and "pay if paid" provisions are not a defense to a Mechanics Lien Foreclosure suit, but they may be a defense to a contract action against the general contractor. Check your contract for any notice provisions for suspension and/or termination of work. Also, make sure that you have provided the insurance certificates required by your contract.
Debt Collection
Our firm has successfully handled and collected on thousands of debt collection files over the years. We have represented banks, small and medium size companies, equipment and material supply companies, construction companies, and individuals to collect money justly due our clients.
